Abstract

Results of mineralogical studies of river and lacustrine deposits of the Vaga river basin (tributary of Severnaya Dvina) are given to reveal criteria for their identification and correlation. Most reliable indices of mineralogical composition of terrace deposits are distinguished: percentage dependence of garnets on heavy fraction yield (grain size 0,25-0,1 mm), composition of a number of secondary, accessory and unstable minerals.
