Abstrakt: The Riphean rocks of the Baikit anteclise have been examined using pyrolysis Rock-Eval 6 to evaluate the subsidence history and erosion level. The studied Riphean rocks have the МK-МK catagenesis grade. Based on the catagenesis of organic matter we propose a model of maximum burial before the beginning of the accumulation of Vendian deposits. Estimated calculations of subsidence and erosion have shown that the assessed catagenesis grade could be reached at a depth of 7 km, while the erosion level was approximately 5-7 km.
