Abstract

New results of dating of detrital zircons from the Kema and Silasa Formations (Albian, Sikhote–Alin Orogenic Belt) permit determination of the provenance sources and geodynamic settings of sediment deposition. The Silasa Formation was deposited in outer island arc settings, separated by a forearc basin from the inner island arc, where the Kema Formation sediments were accumulated. The significant depth and width of the forearc basin hindered input of continent-derived debris to the area of sedimentation of the Silasa Formation.
