Formational Composition and Structure of Taimyr Carboniferous-Triassic Complex

Structure and development features of the Taimyr Carboniferous-Triassic Complex have be studied by using formation analysis and paleotectonic reconstructions. The results obtained and correlations with contiguous geostructures analyzed permit the conclusion that there is a complex composed of structures typical of pericraton subsidence and differently influenced by adjacent tectonic zones. The author shows that the downwarping regime of the complex formation is similar to the foothill (marginal) regime, and the important role of thrust dislocations in structure formation of the complex may be considered as an indicator of a petroleum-bearing field.
