| Abstract: | Investigation of Miocene foraminifers in Karaginsky Island allowed recognition of 13 complexes. In all, three complexes were recognized in the Variegated Formation, eight complexes were found in the Plosky Cape Formation, and three were recorded in the Yunyun’vayam Creak Formation. The changes in their nature were related to changes in paleoenvironments. The composition of complexes indicates their accumulation under conditions of the outer shelf and continental slope. The recognized foraminifer complexes allow correlating successions in Karaginsky Island with Lower-Upper Miocene successions of the Northern Pacific. |
