Summary
The objective of research initiated in Central Timans in August 1995 was to extend and continue the work carried out in the Varanger-Rybachi-Sredni-Kildin area during the years 1990-93. The studies embraced stratigraphy, sedimentation deformation and metamorphism of Neoproterozoic successions which accumulated in different parts of the same NW-SE-oriented extensional basin. Two areas, Chetlasky Kamen and Vymskaya Ridge in the Central Timans, were selected for examination; unfortunately only the latter area was visited, for economic reasons.
