We studied the geochemistry of Paleoproterozoic siliceous rocks (lydites) from the North Onega synclinorium (Karelia). The study objects are represented by 16 lydite samples taken from one stratigraphic level in the geological sections of two sites–Tetyugino and Shunga. Their structural characteristics and mineral composition were studied using a scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy-dispersion microanalyzer. The trace element composition was determined by the inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The contents of most trace elements are below the Clarke concentrations. The Tetyugino lydites contain mainly biophile elements (P, Co, Cu, Mo, V, Ba), while the Shunga lydites are dominated by lithophile elements (Li, Rb, Cs). The trace element composition of lydites indicates that their formation took place on the periphery of the hydrothermal system, whereas the Tetyugino site was closer to the hydrothermal discharge zone than the Shunga site. The chemical peculiarities of the lydites allow us to consider them as a raw material for very pure quartz.

For the first time, original results concerning the composition of fluids extracted from glendonite found in Japan (East) Sea continental slope bottom sediment have been obtained. We used the one-act shock-destructive extraction of volatile components from fluid inclusions and made their pyrolysis-free gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis, which, despite the limited amount of analytical data, are of scientific and practical interest. According to the data obtained, the fluids in glendonite represent a complex multicomponent mineral-forming system. In addition to water and carbon dioxide, representatives of 13 homologous series of organic compounds were found in the studied fluid inclusions. These include oxygen-free aliphatic and cyclic hydrocarbons (paraffins, olefins, cyclic alkanes and alkenes, arenes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons-PAHs), oxygenated hydrocarbons (alcohols, ethers and esters, furans, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids), nitrogen-, sulfur-, halogenated compounds. An oxidized water-carbon dioxide fluid with a reduced content of hydrocarbons and S–N–F-containing compounds 0.8 rel % is preserved in glendonite.
