From major oxides and trace elements in deep-seated xenoliths of garnet-free peridotites from a basalt pedestal and cinder-basalt edifice of the Shiliin-Bogd volcano, rocks are subdivided into groups according to the degree of depletion–enrichment and the effect of garnet on their compositions. Processes of depletion of peridotites with the restite formation, metasomatism with enrichment of rocks in light rare earth elements (REE), and mixing of various components of peridotites with the fluid one of protomantle are established. Limited compositions of peridotite xenoliths from the volcanic edifice associated with anorthoclase and clinopyroxene megacrysts is determined. The data obtained are compared with those on deep-seated peridotite xenoliths from cinder of the Achagiin-Dush volcano located 6 km from the Shiliin-Bogd one. It is inferred that compositions of deep-seated rocks under the volcanoes show different variability. A sequence of generation of the continental lithospheric mantle is reconstructed.

Dynamic settings of the formation of discontinuous systems in a sedimentary cover of the Siberian platform in the area of the Kovykta gas condensate deposit that existed in the Paleozoic and Cenozoic are consistent with those for its southern edge, which allows us to talk about their possible relationship with the determining role of the latter in relation to the former. The Kovykta area is more than 100 km away from the southern edge of the Siberian platform. In this regard, the presence of the discussed relationship requires additional argumentation in the form of substantiation of the physical possibility of transmitting deformations along the sedimentary cover at such a distance from the edge of the platform. The authors, in compliance with the conditions of similarity, performed physical modeling of the geodynamic conditions of N-W compression, left-sided shear and S-E tension, which operated on the southern edge of the Siberian platform in the Paleozoic, early Cenozoic and middle-late Cenozoic, respectively. The results of the simulation showed that under certain boundary conditions of the experiments, deformations can propagate from the edge of the model to its inner parts over long distances only ubder compression and extention. Under conditions of shearing, the lateral dimensions of the area of spatial propagation of deformations in the model are always smaller than those observed in its natural counterpart. This indicates that the Early Cenozoic dynamic environment of the left sheare in the sedimentary cover of the Kovykta gas condensate deposit owes its origin to a complex of geodynamic processes on all active margins of the Siberian platform.

From paleontological data, conglomerates exposed on the northwestern shore of Lake Baikal, in the Bolshiye Koty and Listvyanka areas, belongs to the upper part of the section of the southeastern part of the Irkutsk coal-bearing basin (Angara-Koty depression) and is considered as part of the lower subformation of the Koty Formation dated back to the upper part of the Aalenian Stage of the Middle Jurassic (174–170 Ma). To identify a source of clastic material of the conglomerates, petrogenic oxides and trace elements of pebbles of volcanic rocks are determined and thin sections are examined. Defined are five groups of trachydacite-rhyolite pebbles of plumasite composition in the former outcrop and a group similar in composition to the main Bolshiye Koty group in the second one. The difference between the pebbles of conglomerates from the upper part of the section in the Angara-Koty depression and those of alkaline effusives of acidic and intermediate composition from the lower and middle parts of the section is indicated. It is assumed that the composition of the pebbles of the Upper Koty subformation is similar to that of the Middle Jurassic volcanic and subvolcanic rocks from Transbaikalia. Their origin from three sources is possible: 1) from nearest one – an unknown Middle Jurassic volcano buried under Cenozoic sedimentary stratum of the South Baikal basin, in the suture zone of the Siberian paleocontinent, 2) from the middle-remote one (distance over 250–500 km) – Middle Jurassic volcano-plutonic complexes of the Dzhida-Vitim fault zone, and 3) from the more remote one – the Mongolian-Okhotsk fault zone.

Tducational field practice is of great importance for the future geographer as: a scientist-researcher, a teacher of secondary school, a teacher of additional education (sections of tourism, mountaineering, etc.). The described territory is promising for multifaceted training of the future specialist: it includes a variety of natural zones – from nival-glacial to mountain-taiga and steppe landscapes; relatively accessible (only three hundred kilometers from the regional center with good access roads); quite well studied and described in a number of publications for more than one hundred and fifty years.

IIn therapeutic mud (peloids) of Lake Nuhu Nur, major oxides, trace elements, and mineral phases are determined from sedimentary columns taken in the central and near-coastal parts of the lake. In the center of the lake, layers with high and low contents of total sulfur (Stot) and S2− alternate. Sulfur is part of sulfates: gypsum, tenardite, and hexahydrite. The distribution of S is generally correlated with Na2O, CaO, Sr, and U with a strong negative correlation with other major oxides and trace elements. In near-coastal parts of the lake, there are layers enriched and depleted with CaO, which strongly correlates with Sr. Lithogeochemical signatures of peloids show concentration of therapeutic components in the bottom sediments of the lake due to processes similar to weathering of rocks of silicic composition in arid climate. In terms of major oxides and trace elements, peloids from Lake Nuhu Nur are generally comparable to those from Wudalianchi (Northeast China), coastal regions of Brazil, as well as Georgia and Spain, but are closest to therapeutic high-sulfur sulfate mud of Kopahue in Argentina.
