The article presents the results of studying the petrographic and mineralogical compositions of the sandstones of the Algan formation. Sandstones represented by pelitic-fine-medium-grained quartz-feldspar lithic arenites. Two tectonically combined sandstones lithotypes found. Lithotypes were formed in two heterochronous basins by high-speed and medium-speed turbidity flows, in moderately deep marine environments, in a relatively small distance from the coast. Sedimentation was near the deltas and prodeltas. The sources of these basins were different, related to the heterochronous volcanic areas in the north of the researched region. |
