Abstract
Several geochemical characteristics ((La/Yb)N, Eu/Eu*, and Th content) of gray silts of the Volga River, suspended particulate matter of the Lena River, and silt–pelite fraction of bottom sediments in the Yangtze River are analyzed. It has been established that the above parameters of the chondrite-normalized lanthanide spectra and the Th content turn out in almost all cases to be comparable with their values determined for the specially prepared (removal of nonterrigenous carriers of rare earth elements (carbonate minerals, Fe–Mn oxyhydroxides, and organic components) pelite fractions of bottom sediments deposited near the mouths of named major rivers, and are retained over thousands of kilometers upstream from their deltas/mouths. The regulation of the Volga and Yangtze flows does not have a significant impact on parameters of the suspended particulate matter and bottom sediments under consideration.
期刊介绍：
Lithology and Mineral Resources is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes articles on a wide range of problems related to the formation of sedimentary rocks and ores. Special attention is given to comparison of ancient sedimentary rock and ore formation with present-day processes. The major part of the journal is devoted to comparative analysis of sedimentary processes on the continents and in oceans, as well as the genetic aspects of the formation of sedimentary and hydrothermal–sedimentary mineral resources. The journal welcomes manuscripts from all countries in the English or Russian language.
