| Abstract: | The lithofacies features and formation conditions of Meotian rocks in the Azov–Kuban region are defined. It is shown that the bryozoan organogenic buildups were formed in the Enikale (Kerch) Strait, as well as in the littoral–shallow-water areas of the sedimentary basin. Currents flowing from the Azov–Kuban Sea favored an intense bioherm formation in the paleostrait. They provided the optimal hydrodynamic regime for this process and supplied bryozoans with the needed nutrient medium. The obtained data can be used for estimating the metallogenic potential of Meotian reefal deposits in the Azov–Kuban region. |
