—Alkaline chlorides are important constituents of carbonatitic inclusions in magmatic minerals from kimberlites and lamproites, mantle xenoliths from kimberlites, and diamonds from kimberlites and placers around the world. This indicates the participation of alkali chlorides, along with carbonates, in the processes of melting of mantle rocks, which makes it important to study chloride–carbonate systems at mantle pressures. In this work, we studied the phase relations in the NaCl–CaCO3–MgCO3 system at 3 GPa in the range of 800–1300 °С using a multianvil press. It has been found that the NaCl–CaCO3 and NaCl–MgCO3 binaries have the eutectic type of T–X diagram. The halite–calcite eutectic is situated at 1050 °C and Na2# = 36, while the halite–magnesite eutectic is located at 1190 °C and Na2# = 77, where Na2# = 2NaCl/(2NaCl + CaCO3 + MgCO3) · 100 mol.%. In the NaCl–CaCO3–MgCO3 ternary, subsolidus assemblages are represented by halite and calcium–magnesium carbonates. Just below solidus, two assemblages are stable: halite + magnesite + dolomite and halite + dolomite–calcite solid solution. The minimum on the liquidus/solidus surface corresponds to the halite–Ca0.84Mg0.16CO3 dolomite eutectic, located at about 1000 °С with Na2#/Ca# = 34/84, where Ca# = Ca/(Ca + Mg) · 100 mol.%. At Ca# ≤ 73, the melting is controlled by the halite + dolomite = magnesite + liquid ternary peritectic, located at 1050 °C with Na2#/Ca# = 31/73. According to the data obtained, it can be assumed that at 3 GPa the solidi of NaCl-bearing carbonated peridotite and eclogite are controlled by the peritectic reaction halite + dolomite = magnesite + liquid, located at about 1050 °C. The melting is accompanied by the formation of a chloride–carbonate melt containing (wt.%): NaCl (35), CaCO3 (56), and MgCO3 (9).

—The study considers the distribution of organic carbon in different formations and facies of Cambrian age identified in the cis-Yenisei subbasin. Two groups of depositional environments were recognized in the deepwater perioceanic and epicontinental basins, which accumulated sediments with elevated and sometimes anomalously high concentrations of planktonic and benthic organic matter. These are 1) local centers in the Tommotian (Oksym Formation) and Botomian stages of the lower Cambrian, Mayan (Elogui and Pudzhelga formations) and Ayusokkanian (Kondes Formation) stages of the middle Cambrian; 2) regional Kuonamka horizon, which is composed of Toyonian and Amgian deposits and occurs along the margins of the Siberian Platform; it is represented by the Inikan and Kuonamka formations in the east of the Siberian Platform and by the Paidugina Formation in the study area. The study shows that the organic matter has undergone a high degree of transformation and reached the apocatagenesis grade. The results of the study assume that the hydrocarbon generation intensity was high in the Cambrian formations of the cis-Yenisei subbasin in the geological past.

—Subduction of marine carbonates is accompanied by numerous transformations and interactions, including reactions with reduced mantle rocks. At depths of 250–300 km, carbonates enter mantle zones where metallic iron can be stable. The interaction of carbonates with metals is one of the mechanisms of the release of elemental carbon and the formation of diamond. These processes are also accompanied by carbon isotope fractionation and can result in a significant isotopic heterogeneity of mantle carbon. In this work we study the partitioning of carbon isotopes between carbon and carbon-bearing phases obtained in experiments on the interaction of FeNi alloy with (Mg,Ca)CO3, which simulates mantle–crust redox reactions in the temperature range 800–1550 °C and at a pressure of 6.3 GPa. It has been established that at 800–1000 °C, the carbon of carbonate is reduced at the metal/carbonate interface and dissolves in the FeNi alloy. This process leads to a 17–20‰ depletion of the metal in the heavy carbon isotope. At temperatures above 1330 °C, the fractionation of carbon isotopes between carbonate and metal–carbon melts is reduced to 8.5‰, approaching the thermodynamic calcite–cohenite isotope equilibrium. At temperatures above 1400 °C, diamond crystallizes from metal–carbon and carbonate melts, which leads to isotopic depletion of the metal–carbon melt. As a result, the measured carbon isotope fractionation between the carbonate and metal–carbon melts increases and moves away from the thermodynamic CaCO3–Fe3C equilibrium line. The carbonate–metal redox interaction is supposed to be one of the probable mechanisms of the formation of isotopically light carbon in the mantle at the expense of the marine carbonate sediments subducted into the mantle. This mechanism also provides the formation of anomalous isotopically heavy carbonates found in kimberlites of the Siberian Platform.

––We present the results of study of the geologic structure, petrologic composition, and age of plagiogranitoid associations in the east of the Kaa-Khem batholith (Eastern Tuva). The batholith is located in the junction zone of the Tannu-Ola island arc (TIA) of Vendian–early Cambrian age and the Precambrian rocks of the Tuva–Mongolian microcontinent (TMM). Plagiogranitoids of this region formed in an accretion–collision setting in the period 490–450 Ma. Three stages of formation of plagiogranitoid associations have been established (~489, ~476, and ~450 Ma). The plagiogranitoid associations in the east of the Kaa-Khem batholith do not differ in petrologic composition and age from the plagiogranitoid associations (500–450 Ma) in the west. Xenogenic zircons in the studied plagiogranitoids of the eastern Kaa-Khem batholith have ages of 2335–517 Ma. Their ages are divided into several clusters (524–517, 549–536, 615–586, 684–647, 739–735, 810–794, 842–827, and 2335 Ma) reflecting the heterogeneity of the crust in the TIA–TMM junction zone. The wide range of ages and the abundance of xenogenic zircons in plagiogranitoids of the eastern Kaa-Khem batholith testify to the contribution of older crustal sources to the granite formation at all stages of accretion–collision processes (from 490 to 450 Ma). The much narrower age range of xenogenic zircon (616–474 Ma) and its low contents in coeval plagiogranitoids of the western Kaa-Khem batholith are consistent with their localization within the TIA and the relative homogeneity of the crust in the area of felsic-melt generation. In the west, the influence of older crustal sources was insignificant and manifested itself only at the final stage (~450 Ma) of accretion–collision processes.

—Shoulder beds may have a significant effect on the resistivity log responses. This problem is especially acute in studies of complex strata composed of thin beds with contrasting properties. Different approaches to taking account of the shoulder-bed effect on logging signals are known, such as correction charts, deconvolution operations, and using advanced algorithms of numerical data inversion, which allow one to consider the vertical inhomogeneity of the section. The best result is achieved using the inversion toolkit, but the high labor- and resource-intensiveness of the approach limits its widespread use. The deconvolution approach does not have these disadvantages, but it does not take into account the influence of radial changes in the medium properties on the shapes of measured signals.The possibility of using artificial neural networks (ANN) to increase the vertical resolution of the measured logging data is explored. We assume the existence of a deconvolution-like transformation in which change in the medium properties in the radial direction is also considered. In this case, we can find its approximation using a neural network. The approach is demonstrated by creating a transformation algorithm for the high-frequency electromagnetic logging (VIKIZ) sounding tool, which is widely used in the CIS countries for petroleum exploration. The developed algorithm has been tested on the VIKIZ logs from the Fedorovskoe oilfield (Latitudinal Ob’ region).

—Experimental studies aimed at determining the conditions for the formation of diamond and graphite as a result of the redox interaction of reduced mantle rocks and oxidized rocks of the slab in a wide temperature range, including the conditions of both “cold” and “hot” subduction, were carried out on a “split-sphere” multianvil high-pressure apparatus (BARS) in the (Fe,Ni)–(Mg,Ca)CO3 system, at 6.3 GPa and 800–1550 °C for 35–105 h, using the “sandwich” assembly. We have established that the interaction of Fe,Ni metal and carbonate is due to the creation and propagation of a redox front, at rates from 1.3 (800 °C) to 118 μm/h (1550 °C). At T < 1200 °С, this interaction leads to the formation of alternating reaction zones (from the reduced center to the oxidized periphery): metal → metal + wüstite/magnesiowüstite → magnesiowüstite + graphite ± Mg,Fe,Ca carbonates → magnesite + aragonite. In this case, in the reduced part of the samples, the formation of a Ni,Fe metal phase strongly enriched in Ni (up to 65–70 wt.% vs. the initial 10 wt.%) was recorded. At higher temperatures, the formation of Fe,Ni metal–carbon (≥1200 °C) and carbonate (≥1330 °C) melts was observed. We have found that the presence of nickel precludes the formation of carbides in the reduced part of the sample and ensures stable diamond crystallization at 1400–1550 °C both in metal–carbon and carbonate melts. Our experiments demonstrate that diamonds from the metal–carbon melt are characterized by inclusions of taenite and magnesiowüstite. The morphology of these diamonds is determined by the {111} layer-by-layer grown faces, and their indicator characteristics are nitrogen–vacancy and nickel-related (884 nm) centers at 1400 °C or nickel–nitrogen centers (S3, 598 nm, 727 nm, 746 nm, etc.) at 1550 °C. For diamonds formed in the carbonate melt, the morphology is determined by the {100} and {111} (vicinal-growth) faces; carbonates are identified as inclusions; and nitrogen–vacancy centers H3, NV0, and NV– are fixed in the photoluminescence spectra. Experiments show that the indicator of the metal–carbonate interaction temperature is the degree of structural perfection of graphite, which increases in the range of 800–1550 °C.

––The integral Sumudu transform was established as an alternative to the Laplace transform in the 1990s. The Sumudu transform fundamental properties include preservation of the dimensionality of a function, ensuring measurement units both in the function and its image to be equivalent. Among its disadvantages is the absence of an explicit formula for calculating the inverse transform. The transforms are inverted by solving the corresponding Fredholm integral equation of the first kind, which is reduced to solving an ill-conditioned system of linear algebraic equations. We apply Tikhonov’s method for regularization of this type system. The paper proposes a technique for constructing a parametrized regularizing matrix that takes into account the properties of the Sumudu images obtained by modeling the electromagnetic sounding process of the Earth’s interior. A method for choosing the Tikhonov regularization parameters and the regularizing matrix is considered. The effectiveness of the proposed method for the Sumudu transform inversion is examined on a model problem of electromagnetic sounding of the Earth’s interior by a measurement system consisting of two loops spaced apart.

—Feldspar group minerals (feldspars) form up to 60 vol.% of the Earth’s crust. The knowledge of their stability under extreme conditions (high-pressure and high-temperature) allow to better understand the processes, that occur in the subduction and collision processes. This review focuses on the behavior of feldspars with paracelsian topology (seven mineral species: three borosilicates, two aluminosilicates and two beryllophosphates) at elevated temperatures and pressures. Partly, new data on high-temperature behavior of paracelsian BaAl2Si2O8 (based on in situ high-temperature powder X-ray diffraction) provided. The high-temperature studies of 5 feldspar minerals with paracelsian topology (danburite, maleevite, pekovite, paracelsian, slawsonite) revealed that all of them are stable at least up to 800 °C. Among all of them only paracelsian undergoes polymorphic transition (at 930 °C), whereas all other minerals decompose or amorphisize. The structural deformations of these minerals demonstrate the different anisotropy degree upon heating, whereas the average volume expansion is similar for all of them (αV = 23 × 10–6 ºC–1). High-pressure behavior was studied for six of seven minerals with paracelsian topology (danburite, meleevite, pekovite, paracelsian, slawsonite, hurlbutite). The studied minerals undergo transformations with the stepwise increasing of coordination number of frame-forming cations from 4 to 5 and 6 upon compression The discovering of unusual structural units under extreme conditions (e.g., fivefold-coordinated polyhedral) can influence on the concentration and transport processes of trace elements that should be taken into account when interpreting geochemical and geophysical data. The crystal structure stability range of studied minerals highly depends on the chemical composition of frame-forming cations: aluminosilicates are the least stable and undergo the phase transitions below 6 GPa; borosilicates preserve their initial crystal structure up to ~20 GPa; beryllium phosphates do not undergo phase 2 transformations up to 75 GPa. It has been shown that transformations pathway of isostuctural compounds highly depends on the chemical composition of both extraframework and frame-forming cations that involves the difficulties with predictions of their behavior under extreme conditions.

The knowledge of their stability under extreme conditions (high-pressure and high-temperature) allow to better understand the processes, that occur in the subduction and collision processes. This review focuses on the behavior of feldspars with paracelsian topology (seven mineral species: three borosilicates, two aluminosilicates and two beryllophosphates) at elevated temperatures and pressures. Partly, new data on high-temperature behavior of paracelsian BaAl2Si2O8 (based on in situ high-temperature powder X-ray diffraction) provided. The high-temperature studies of 5 feldspar minerals with paracelsian topology (danburite, maleevite, pekovite, paracelsian, slawsonite) revealed that all of them are stable at least up to 800 °C. Among all of them only paracelsian undergoes polymorphic transition (at 930 °C), whereas all other minerals decompose or amorphisize.

––A large regional-scale Ordovician continental basin has been revealed for the first time in Siberia. Sedimentary structures in the Ordovician rocks of Tyva represent deposition environments of rivers, oxbow lakes, dunes, river deltas, tidal, and coastal plains. Ichnofossils record a succession from freshwater (limnic-fluvial) to deltaic and tidal facies. Integrated studies of sedimentary rocks from Central Tyva show that they were deposited on a coastal plain within a large river delta. The Central Tyva Ordovician basin was similar to the coeval basins of the Gondwanian continents in the style of clastic and redbed deposition.

––We studied the bottom sediments of lake systems located in the taiga landscape of Siberia. In the south of Western Siberia, there are 11 lakes in the subzone of the south taiga and 9 lakes in the subtaiga subzone. On the territory of the south of Eastern Siberia in the taiga zone there are 10 lakes on the southern coast of Lake Baikal, 5 lakes on its east coast and 6 lakes are located on the territory of the national park “Alkhanai” in Transbaikalia. Studies of the chemical composition of water, soil, and sediment samples were conducted at the Analytical Center for Multi-Elemental and Isotope Research SB RAS, Novosibirsk. The use of a complex of modern analytical methods in the study of the same lake samples made it possible to obtain more reliable information (1861 samples of bottom sediment were studied). Quartz and feldspars of pelitic dimension dominate in the mineral composition of the terrigenous fraction, organic matter and authigenic minerals (opal, pyrite, illite and sometimes calcite) are added to them during the bottom sediments formation. The absolute contents of the studied elements in the bottom sediments of all lakes are lower than their concentrations in the upper continental crust and sedimentary rocks of the Russian Plate, with the exception of Si, Hg, Cd. In the lakes of the subtaiga of the south of Western Siberia, an exception was established for Ca in the bottom sediments of which carbonates predominate. Contents variations of a number of elements in the bottom sediments of taiga lakes in different regions do not significantly differ. The dispersion of their concentrations between lakes with a total catchment area and lakes from different regions are comparable (Ca, Sr, Al, Mn, Fe, Cd, Hg, etc.). The current sedimentation rate in natural occurrence in the lakes of the taiga zone (southern Siberia) vary from 1.1 to 2.9 mm/year. Moreover, it is comparable to the current sedimentation rate in the lakes of the forest-steppe and steppe zones of south of Western Siberia.
