Abstract

Detrital monazite from Upper Jurassic sediments in the central part of the Frolov megadepression, West Siberian megabasin, is studied. Chemical composition of the mineral is studied and data on its age (chemical dating) are presented. Most monazite clasts are characterized by low roundness and their age corresponds to the Lower Paleozoic. Upper Jurassic sediments were likely derived not only from the local Early Paleozoic rock complexes (altaides), which make up the pre-Jurassic basement of the Frolov megadepression, but also from rocks located east and south of this megadepression.
