The tectonic structure of the Orekhov-Pavlograd interblock zone of the Ukrainian shield is studied in this paper. This one has emerged since the 3600 million years ago, during the Katarchean/Archaean, ooidringed stage of the continental crust evolution. Its internal structure is described and anomalous features for future research are highlighted by comprehensive analysis of geological, geophysical, morphometric and remote sensed data.
The geological and geodynamic conditions for the formation of significant fields of HC within the foot of the northern continental slope of the Black Sea are considered on basis of the cyclical processes of Earth’s crust development taking into account the hydrocarbons (HC) inorganic origin concept. It is shown that this foot is subdivided into the western and eastern parts (the Sorokin’s depression), which are differ essentially from one another. The statement is justified about good prospectivity for significant hydrocarbon deposits inside the western part of the foot of continental slope.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
