Abstract

The potential of the stepwise dissolution analytical procedure to obtain chemostratigraphic and geochronological information is demonstrated by a case study of Riphean carbonate rocks of the Kamo Group of the Baykit Uplift (Eastern Siberia). The procedures suggested for studying Rb–Sr and U–Pb systems in carbonate rocks included (1) selection of samples with the lowest 87Sr/86Sr ratio on the basis of preliminary Rb–Sr analysis of the collection using the routine procedure of bulk leaching in 0.1N CH3COOH; (2) detailed study of the Rb–Sr systematics in selected samples using two-step dissolution in 0.2N CH3COOH and separation of L(Rb–Sr)1 and L(Rb–Sr)2 fractions; (3) analysis of Pb isotope composition of the selected samples to derive the preliminary value of their age; (4) detailed study of U–Pb systematics of carbonate rocks using the stepwise dissolution in 0.5N HBr, resulting in six dissolved fractions L(U–Pb)1–L(U–Pb)6 for each of the selected samples; and (5) a final calculation of the Pb–Pb age of the studied rocks, based on the results from the obtained fractions, with the exclusion from the calculation of the initial fractions of this dissolution containing epigenetically altered carbonate material. The values of the initial 87Sr/86Sr ratio in L(Rb–Sr)2 fractions of carbonate rocks of the Kamo Group are as follows: limestone of the Madra Formation, 0.70490; dolostones of the Jurubchen Formation, 0.70495–0.70503; and dolostones of the Kuyumba and Vingolda formations, 0.70580 and 0.70521, respectively. These values characterizing the least altered carbonate material correspond to 87Sr/86Sr ratios in the Early Riphean ocean and can be used for chemostratigraphic calculations. Taking into account the Rb–Sr data, the U–Pb age of the Jurubchen Formation carbonate rocks dissolved in six steps was calculated, starting from L(U–Pb)3. The slope of the resulting isochron in the coordinates 206Pb/204Pb–207Pb/204Pb corresponds to 1501 ± 23 Ma, which supports the conclusion that the carbonate rocks of the lower part of the Kamo Group of the Baykit Uplift were formed in the Early Riphean.
