Abstract

Sviatonossites are syenites with andradite garnet, a rare type of igneous rocks described by P. Eskol in 1913 on the Sviatoy Nose peninsula (Lake Baikal). Due to the absence of zircon in the rocks, which makes it possible to date the age of rocks using a reliable U-Pb method, geochronological studies of Sm and Nd by the gross composition and minerals were carried out. As a result, 2 estimated periods of the formation of the Saints were obtained. According to the gross composition and four minerals (garnet, pyroxene, potassium feldspar, apatite), the age was 262 ± 21 million years (SQUAW = 1.6), and according to the gross composition and garnet — 274 ± 25 million years (SQUAW = 0.0). The results obtained coincide with the boundaries of the manifestation of tectonic-metamorphic and magmatic processes associated with the formation of the East Trans-Baikal segment of the Central Asian (Mongol-Okhotsk) folded belt. Sviatonossites in complexes of mobile (folded) belts framed by the Siberian craton are indicator rocks reflecting the manifestation of mantle-crustal interaction.
