Abstract

The information on the Late Palaeozoic deposits of the New Siberian Islands is essential to clarify the palaeogeography of the surrounding Arctic Region and to quest the original location of the New Siberian continental block prior to the Amerasian ocean opening. The best Upper Palaeozoic section of the islands, located in the western part of the Kotel’ny Island (Tas-Ary Peninsula), was examined in detail. The studied rocks characterize a transitional facial zone between the northeastern shallow-water (central areas of the Kotel’ny Island) and the southwestern deep-water ones (Bel’kov Island). The stratigraphy of the Carboniferous and partly Permian strata was specified by the study of four fauna groups, detrital zircon dating, and structure interpretation. The section demonstrates a gradual change of depositional environments from shallow-marine in the Lower Carboniferous to deep-water in the middle Carboniferous and Permian. The Tournaisian and Visean rocks (Tas-Ary Formation, not less than 950 m) were formed on the open shelf or ramp with predominant carbonate sedimentation. They were deposited above the storm-wave base during the early Tournaisian and at greater depth later. The Serpukhovian–Middle (?) Permian rocks (Bel’kov Formation, not less than 300 m) were accumulated on the deep-water subaqueous slope and, possibly, at its base. Black shales and turbidite sandstones compose a significant part of the Bel’kov Formation. Sandstones have a siliciclastic–carbonate composition in the upper Lower Carboniferous and are carbonate-free up the section. The boundary between Tas-Ary and Bel’kov formations corresponds to a change in the shelf-to-basin profile and depositional style. At this time (the beginning of the Serpukhovian), the subsidence rate increased, a pronounced slope was formed, and a new source of clastics appeared on land. This reorganization was probably related to the Northern Taimyr orogen rise. The lithological similarity of the Lower Carboniferous deposits of the Tas-Ary Peninsula and Southern Taimyr, the synchronous shift in sedimentation from carbonate to terrigenous rocks, and the same source of clastic material for the Upper Carboniferous–Permian sandstones in both regions indicate their belonging to the same sedimentary basin in the Late Palaeozoic. We believe that the western part of the New Siberian Islands represented a continental margin in Late Devonian, Carboniferous and Permian times, and that it was a continuation of the Verkhoyansk margin. The latter is possible, taking into account rotation of the New Siberian Islands block according to the two-pole rotational model of the Amerasian basin opening.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

We are grateful to B.B. Levochsky for his help in the field reconnaissance study of the Tas-Ary section, E.I. Kulagina for her advice in the identification of foraminifera, and J. Hourigan for providing the instrumentation base and instructions for zircon dating by LA-ICP-MS.

Funding

This work was supported by the Russian Science Foundation (project no. 17-77-10123). Isotopic dating of zircons was funded by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFBR) (project no. 16-05-00176). Final processing of data was supported by the RFBR (project no. 19-05-00926). The investigations were carried out in accordance with the scientific research plans of the Geological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences (M.K. Danukalova and A.B. Kuzmichev, project no. 0135-2019-0051; T.N. Isakova, project no. 0135-2019-0062; and V.G. Ganelin, project no. 0135-2019-0057). The work of O.L. Kossovaya was supported by the Program of Competitive Growth of Kazan Federal University among the World’s Leading Academic Centers and has been performed following the research plans of the Karpinsky Russian Geological Research Institute (project no. 04900031-1600). The work of V.G. Ganelin was partially supported by the Program of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences “Evolution of the Organic World. Role and Effect of the Planetary Events.”
