Abstract
The article presents the results of studying and substantiating the age of the Ediacaran volcanogenic-sedimentary and Cambrian sedimentary strata isolated for the first time within the southern part of the Ulutau terrane (southern Ulutau) in the west of Central Kazakhstan. The age estimates (SHRIMP II) of 594 ± 3, 594 ± 5, and 600 ± 2 Ma obtained for effusive and tufogenic rocks, as well as their isotope-geochemical characteristics, are the first evidence of the manifestation of Ediacaran suprasubduction magmatism in the paleozoics of Kazakhstan and the northern Tien Shan. The obtained data indicate the participation of the Ulutau terrane at the end of the Precambrian in the structure of the volcanic-plutonic belt, fragments of which are also Neoproterozoic blocks within southwestern Kazakhstan (the Zheltavsky and Chuysko-Kendyktassky terranes) of the Southern Tien Shan and the Karakum‒Tajik terrane. The formation of the Ediacaran suprasubduction belt may be a continuation of the evolution of the Neoproterozoic active continental margin that arose in the Tonian period on the northwestern margin of the supercontinent Rodinia.
