Grain Size Composition of Neopleistocene Basal Moraines in the Northeasternmost Area of the Russian Plain
Generalization of the grain size analyses of the basal Neopleistocene moraines from the sections of coastal outcrops and boreholes in the vast European Subarctic region of Russia and in more southern areas of the Timan–Pechora–Vychegda region showed that the moraines are typical mixed, almost unsorted rocks with similar contents of the gravel–sand, silt, and clay fractions, serving as one of the arguments in favor of their glacial genesis. Their grain size composition is related to the peculiarities of rocks in the glacier bed. It is formed during the crushing, abrasion, and mixing of the glacier-rafted, assimilated, and transported material during its transportation and deposition, which determines variability of the grain size composition of moraines. Consequently, the grain size composition of moraines in combination with other lithological data reflects the pathway and dynamics of the glacier movement.
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.
