DYNAMICS OF THE EARTH'S CRUST OF THE CRIMEAN PENINSULA IN THE MESOZOIC-CENOZOIC (A TECTONOPHYSICAL ASPECT). PART 2

Abstract

The main deformation stages of Mesozoic-Cenozoic deposits in the Crimean Peninsula were identified on the basis of structural-paragenetic and kinematic analyses of cracks and glide planes. The Late-Jurassic age of the Karadag volcanic massif was confirmed. It seems that the Upper-Jurassic rocks occur virtually autochthonously. Variation of the relationship between the main stresses during deformation was studied. A tectonophysical model of the dynamic system of the Southern-coast seismic zone is discussed.
