DYNAMICS OF THE EARTH'S CRUST OF THE CRIMEAN PENINSULA IN THE MESOZOIC-CENOZOIC (A TECTONOPHYSICAL ASPECT). PART 1

Abstract

The main stages of deformation of Meso-Cenozoic age of the Crimean peninsula were identified on the basis of structure-parageneses and kinematic analyses of cracks and glide planes. The Late-Jurassic age of the Karadag volcanic massif was proven. It seems that the Late-Jurassic rocks occured mainly autochthonously. Variation of the relationship between the principal normal stresses in the course of deformation was established. A tectonophysical model of the dynamic system of the southern-shore seismic zone was developed.
