In the structure of the Sakmara allochthon of the Southern Uralssequence with rhyolites and ignimbrites locally occures. They have Nb-Zr-REE geochemical specialization. This sequence unconformably overlays folded Paleozoic complexes, including the Devonian ones. Rhyolite contains K-feldspar and quartz phenocrysts, K-feldspar glomeroporphyrites and granite xenolith. Geochemical features of the rhyolites show intraplate-originated affinities and A-type granite composition.40Ar/39Ar age of the felsitic matrix of the rhyolites of 303±2 Ma defines the age of the volcanic complex origin. For feldspar phenocrysts the age of 306±3 Ma and 337±3 Ma is obtained. The first value coincides to the matrix age and connected with formation of the volcanic complex. The second value belongs, apparently, to xenogenic material. Obtained age values reflect the evolution of Carboniferous active continental margin magmatism, widespread in different structural zones of the Urals. Rare-metal rhyolites characterize the final late Carboniferous intraplate (rift-related) back-arc magmatism at the active continental margin. Volcanism preceded to a collision-related ophiolitic thrust nappes emplacement.

Within the Western slope of the Southern Urals, there are plenty of basite dyke complexes of Riphean to Vendian among Precambrian terrigenous-carbonate formations. In metamorphic formations of the Taratash complex (Archean to Early Proterozoic, the northern closure of the Bashkirian meganticlinorium) there was observed the andesitic dyke with isotopic age of 71±1 Ma (U-Pb SHRIMP II on zircons) and near Bakal two bodies of gabbroids with zircons of similar ages were found. These are the first evidence of possible Mezozoic magmatism in this region.

The secondary birch and aspen forests of middle stages of succession of the central elevated part of the Southern Urals are studied. 4 subassociations, 1 community, and 7 variants in the alliances of Aconito-Piceion and Piceion excelsae are allocated. It is shown that the floristic composition of aspen and birch secondary forests in the age of 60—80 years is almost identical to the natural forests. However, a slight increase the coenotical role of light-requiring species of grasslands and hemiboreal forests in the secondary communities of the class Brachypodio-Betuletea was noticed as well as some reduction of role the shade-tolerant species of nemoral complex and species of boreal forests of the class Vaccinio-Piceetea. Dominant tree layer under the canopy of secondary series is marked by an active growth of natural tree species.

Xerophillous pine-larch forests of the Southern Ural have been described as a new alliance Caragano fruti­cis—Pinion sylvestris. They occur on steep slopes of upper parts of mountain ridges with poorely developed stony soils. Alliance asigned to the class Brachypodio pinnati—Betuletea pendulae, order Chamaecytiso ruthe­nici—Pinetalia sylvestris. Associations Carici caryophyl­leae—Pinetum sylvestris and Ceraso fruticis—Pinetum sylvestris with four subassociations are described. Eco­logical and floristical peculiarities of new alliance in comparison with another alliances of the order Cha­maecytiso-Pinetalia and with siberian class Rhytidio rugosi—Laricetea sibiricae have been discussed.
