Abstract

The results of studying the formation conditions of sediments of the Northwestern Caucasus on the Jurassic–Cretaceous boundary were presented. The obtained data made it possible to clarify the paleo-settings of sedimentation and the sources of erosion of clastic material. Three sedimentation systems were established: carbonate, carbonate–terrigenous, and terrigenous. The paleo-settings at the boundary of the Jurassic and Cretaceous in the Northwestern Caucasus were the transition from shallow-water settings with reef edifices on the shelve edge to relatively deep-sea marine trough settings.
