Scientists from IPGG SB RAS will participate in the All-Russian meeting with international participation 'Paleozoic of Russia: Problems of Regional Stratigraphy and Interregional Correlation' that is held on 11-14 November at the Karpinsky Russian Geological Research Institute (St. Petersburg).

IPGG SB RAS is represented for the most part by researchers from the Laboratory of Paleozoic Paleontology and Stratigraphy and Laboratory of Sedimentology.

In his presentation, Igor Korovnikov, DSc (geol.-mineral.), will be discussing regional stratigraphic units (horizons) of the Middle Cambrian of the Altai-Sayan fold region. Nikolay Sennikov, DSc (geol.-mineral.), and Elena Lykova, PhD (geol.-mineral.) have prepared a presentation titled "Modernization of the Ordovician Graptolite Scale of the Altai Mountains: A Path to High-Resolution Regional and Global Correlations and Paleogeographic Reconstructions".

Another presentation prepared by Olga Obut, PhD (geol.-mineral.), in collaboration with N.V. Sennikov is devoted to the zonal scale of Ordovician conodonts for the western Altai-Sayan folded region with a particular focus on its exploration maturity, possibilities for its detailed revision, and the potential for correlations.

The joint presentation by Natalia Novozhilova and Nikolay Sennikov is titled "Early Silurian conodonts from the Glyaden Mt section (Baskuskan Formation, Salair)." Nadezhda Izokh, PhD (geol.-mineral.), will be presenting her research results on conodont species from Devonian deposits and their interregional correlations.

DSc Nikolay Sennikov also weighed in on the development of presentation on the state and prospects of regional stratotypes in the stage subdivision of the Ordovician System, together with T.Yu. Tolmacheva, G.S. Iskyul (Karpinsky Institute, St. Petersburg) and A.V. Dronov (Geological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (GIN RAS), Moscow).

In addition, the conference participants will be familiarized with a poster presentation by Olga Izokh, PhD (geol.-mineral.), Nadezhda Izokh PhD (geol.-mineral.), (IPGG SB RAS, Novosibirsk) and P.N. Leibgam from Central Research Institute of Geological Prospecting for Base and Precious Metals (TsNIGRI, Moscow) on variations in carbon isotope compositions in the Lower Devonian of Salair.
