The results of studies indicate that the age of the protoliths of garnet-bearing biotite–sericite–muscovite schists of the Inim Block is <991 Ma, and they are derived from rocks of the Neo-, Meso-, and Paleoproterozoic (as well as Archean) crust. This suggests that the Inim Block is exotic relatively to the Argun Superterrane due to the formation of the protolith of its metasedimentary rocks largely from erosion products of the Early Precambrian continental crust, the presence of which within the Argun Superterrane is not proven. It is not excluded that the Inim Block is a fragment of the Dzhugdzhur–Stanovoi Superterrane implanted in the structure of the Argun Superterrane as a result of Mesozoic tectonic events.

In this paper we present the results of the mineralogical and geochemical studies of metaterrigenous rocks of the Grebnev and Magdagachi formations of the Chalovskaya Sequence – one of the key stratigraphic divisions of the Argun continental Massif in the eastern part of the Central Asian fold belt, and U–Pb geochronological (LA-ICP-MS) data for the detrital zircons from these rocks. It is established that the youngest zircons in the metasandstones of the Grebnev Formation have an age of ~478 Ma, and in the metaalevrolites of the Magdagachi Formation ~448 Ma. Together with the previously obtained data on the age of metadacites from the Isagachi Formation (476 ± 8 Ma), this information indicates the Ordovician age of the Chalovskaya Sequence, previously attributed to the Late Precambrian. It was shown that the accumulation of sediments of the Chalovskaya Sequence took place in an environment of an active continental margin or island arc simultaneously with intense magmatic activity. Taking into account the fact that the Early Paleozoic suprasubduction magmatism manifested within all the continental massifs of the eastern part of the Central Asian fold belt (Argun, Mamyn, Bureya, Jiamusi, Khanka), it cannot be excluded that the mentioned continental massifs have a common geodynamic history.

The results of the U—Th—Pb geochronological studies indicate that in the Un’ja-Bom terrane the youngest peaks on the relative probability curves of ages are 207 and 212 Ma for zircons from the metasiltstone of the Kurnal formation and from the metasiltstone of the Amkan formation. Similar age estimates for the youngest peaks were obtained for the detrital zircons from the metasedimentary rocks of the Tukuringra terrain of the eastern part of the Mongol-Okhotsk belt, which indicates that the Lower Mesozoic flyschoid complexes in the structure of this belt are developed much wider than is currently believed. The results obtained in our U—Th—Pb geochronological and Sm—Nd isotope geochemical studies suggest’s that the sedimentary rocks material was carried to the sedimentation basin mainly from the continental massifs of the Amur superterrane.
