Abstrakt: New 87Sr/86Sr, δ13C, and δ18О chemostratigraphic data were obtained for carbonate rocks of the Lower Riphean Yusmastakh and the Vendian Starorechenskaya formations. The δ13С values in dolomites of the Yusmastakh Formation varies from-0.6 to-0.1‰ and in dolomites and dolomitic limestones of the Starorechenskaya Formation, from-1.2 to-0.4‰ PDB, and δ18О values, from 24.4 to 26.4‰ and from 25.3 to 27.6‰ SMOW, respectively. The Rb-Sr systematics of carbonate rocks was studied using the refined method of stepwise dissolution of samples in acetic acid, including chemical removal of up to one-third of the ground sample by preliminary acid leaching and subsequent partial dissolution of the rest of the sample. Owing to this procedure, secondary carbonate material is removed, which enables one to improve the quality of the Sr-chemostratigraphic data obtained. The initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios in carbonate rocks of the Yusmastakh (0.70468-0.70519) and Starorechenskaya (0.70832-0.70883) formations evidence the Riphean-Vendian boundary in the Precambrian sequence of the Anabar Uplift.
