A new Ectasian event of basitic magmatism in the southern Siberian Craton
On the basis of U–Pb dating of zircon and baddeleyite from gabbro–dolerite of the Goloustnaya dyke swarm (southern margin of the Siberian Craton) the age of basites was established as 1338.0 ± 2.9 Ma. It is shown that the basite intrusions of close ages from the Goloustnaya and Listvyanka areas (sou...

On the basis of U–Pb dating of zircon and baddeleyite from gabbro–dolerite of the Goloustnaya dyke swarm (southern margin of the Siberian Craton) the age of basites was established as 1338.0 ± 2.9 Ma. It is shown that the basite intrusions of close ages from the Goloustnaya and Listvyanka areas (southern Siberian Craton) and Victoria Island (northern Laurentia Barking Dog complex) could have been formed under the influence of the same mantle plume and belong to the same Large Igneous Province of Ectasian (Middle Mesoproterozoic) age. The time interval 1.70–0.75 Ga is often called a “period of global uncertainty” [1] or a “boring billion” [2] in the geological literature. P.A. Cawood and C.J. Hawkesworth [3] showed that neither global glaciations occurred in this period nor did large deposits of orogenic gold iron and sulfides form.
