Expedition for the study miocene igneous rocks to Southern Kamchatka

Miocene igneous rocks of southern Kamchatka have remained poorly studied, so an expedition was organized in September-October, 2022, as part of a project for young scientist supported from the Russian Science Foundation. Main part of the expedition was carried out using maritime transport. The outcrops in the cliffs of the Beregovoi ridge on the Pacific coast side were studied. Part of the field works were close to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Vilyuchinsk cities, in the valley of the Paratunka river, in the basement of Vilyuchinsky pass, on the Zavoiko peninsula with involvement of vehicles. The presented work describes the sampling points and shows photographs of the outcrops. Paleomagnetic and isotope-geochemical characteristics of the samples are supposed to be obtained, which will be used to create a model of formation of magmatic complexes of southern Kamchatka.
