The article deals with the study of geological sections of the Ordovic age in Gorny Altai. On the territory of the Altai Mountains, outcrops of rocks of the Ordovic age were found. As a result of the work on the sections, the lithological composition was analyzed and the fauna was collected, the taxonomic composition of which was then determined in the Paleozoic laboratory of the Institute of Geological and Geological Development of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. On the basis of the data of geological survey, mapping of the territory, the results of the study of geological sections, their lithology and faunistic composition, it is planned to create an interactive cartographic service in the future.

The article raises the questions related to the appearance of unique rectangular box-shape furnaces in the Altai mountains. These furnaces were the largest iron-smelting construction in Siberia and Central Asia. Archaeological field work carried out in 2018-2020 coupled with the series of radiocarbon dates made it possible to establish that furnaces of this type appeared in the Southeastern Altai not in the era of the Turkic Khaganates, as it was previously thought, but in a previous time within the 3rd-5th centuries AD. The article discusses the design and productivity of the box-shape furnaces. It is hypothesized that the similar in shape Xiongnu pottery kilns type could have been a prototype of large rectangular structures of the box-shape linear furnaces. Radiocarbon analyzes have proven the synchronicity of the Xiongnu pottery kilns and the rectangular furnaces. The sudden disappearance of the box-shape furnaces in the Altai Mountains in the 7th-8th centuries AD and the same sudden appearance of the similar furnaces in Japan in the same period is explained by the possible migration of smelters in the era of the Second East Turkic Khaganate. Keywords: archaeometallurgy, iron-smelting furnaces, Gorny Altai, Xiongnu-Xianbei time

Taxonomic complex of graptolites from the «Verkhnyaya Karasu» section have been studied. This section is located in the central part of Gorny Altai Mountains. The section covers a large stratigraphic interval: from upper Ordovician (Sandbian Stage) to Middle Silurian (Telychian Stage). For the Ordovician, the Bugryshikha, Khankhara and Tekhten' formations are distinguished. For the Silurian, the Vtorye Utyosy, Syrovaty, Polaty, Chesnokovka and Chesnokovka formations are distinguished. Previously, in this section no graptolites were found in the upper part of the Bugryshikha formation. There is a large and diverse complex of taxa collected in 2020. The graptolites assemblage from the upper part of the Bugryshikha formation consists of Reteograptus uniformis Mu et Zhang, Reteograptus geinitzianus Hall, Eoglyptograptus euglyphus Mitchell, Orthograptus apiculatus Elles et Wood, Orthograptus whitfieldi (Hall), Rectograptus truncatus (Lapworth), Rectograptus ex.gr. truncatus (Lapworth), Hustedograptus sp., Callograptus sp.

In the Kurai ridge located in the southeastern Gorny Altai (Altai Mountains, Russia) metamorphic rocks of the Kurai complex are widely developed: granite‐gneisses, crystalline schists and amphibolites, including widespread Early Carboniferous mylonites and blastomylonites. Oriented samples of blastomylonites were taken from the upper reaches of the Kuraika river for the microstructural study aimed to determine the kinematics of movements. The analyses of thin cut samples show structural‐kinematic indicators that suggest two deformation events (left‐lateral shearing, then right‐lateral shearing).

Depending on specific combinations of geoenvironmental factors, the micropopulations of the bluehoneysuckle in the valley of the Kuraika River (Gorny Altai) produced fruits of increased or decreased size and seednumber. The observed 3-fold higher accumulation of biologically active phenols in fruits, accompanied by the respectivedecreased accumulation in leaves, and narrower ratios of certain polyphenol classes in leaves and fruits are considered tobe the plant response to the stressing impact of environmental factors, resulting from the active tectonic processes in thestudied area of the Russian Altai.
