Abstrakt:	The northeastern extremity of the East-Asian Rift Belt is designated as the Priokhotsky Rift, comprising the broadly north-south Torom (750 × 100 km) and Nizhneamursky (450 × 100 km) open faults formed by a system of northeast striking grabens associated with the closure of the Tan-Lu shear system and north-south striking grabens formed in a setting of oblique extension. Infilling of the grabens corresponding to the rift stage proper is the Eocene−Miocene coal-bearing molasse; the fields of the Miocene basalts are also related to it. The grabens of the rift belt are overlain by the Pliocene-Neopleistocene associations of rift basins in the forming plate cover of the Alpine platform. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
