Отложения поздненеогеновой свиты хиргис-нур имеют большое значение для биостратиграфии Центральной Азии, поскольку содержат уникальную палеонтологическую летопись и обладают широким географическим распространением в этом регионе. Стратотип свиты был описан в разрезе Хиргис-Нур-2 на северном берегу одноименного озера. Био- и магнитостратиграфическая характеристики разреза по итогам работ 70-х и 80-х гг. XX в. позволили обосновать положение границы миоцена и плиоцена (туролийский и русцинийский биохроны) внутри выделенной пачки А (нижнехиргиснурская подсвита). Целью данной работы было уточнение возраста и стратиграфического расчленения свиты хиргис-нур в свете новых данных. Изучение геологии нижнехиргиснурской подсвиты стратотипа и ревизия комплекса млекопитающих (хищные, копытные, грызуны) позволили сделать вывод о том, что териофауна характеризует поздний туролий (MN13) континентальной шкалы и вся эта часть разреза должна быть отнесена к терминальному миоцену. Полученные результаты дают возможность скорректировать историю развития Котловины Больших Озер.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The Great Lakes Depression in northwestern Mongolia contains widespread Late Neogene continental deposits, reaching thicknesses of several hundred metres. The Late Neogene Khyargas Nuur formation (also known as the Khirgis-Nur formation) has a significant biostratigraphic value for Central Asia, as it encompasses a unique palaeontological record and has a wide geographical distribution in the region. The stratotype of this formation was described in the Khyargas Nuur 2 (=Khirgis-Nur-2) section on the northern shore of Khyargas Lake. Bio- and magnetostratigraphic studies conducted in the 1970s and 1980s identified the Miocene-Pliocene boundary (corresponding to the Turolian and Ruscinian biochrons) within Unit A, or the Lower Khyargas Nuur subformation. This study aims to refine the age and stratigraphic subdivisions of the Khyargas Nuur formation in light of new data. Examination of the geology of the Lower Khyargas Nuur Subformation stratotype, along with a revision of the associated mammalian assemblage (carnivores, ungulates, and rodents), supports the conclusion that this faunal complex corresponds to the Late Turolian (MN13) of the continental biochronological scale, thus assigning this section to the terminal Miocene. These findings provide new insights into the geological history of the Great Lakes Depression and the faunal history of Central Asia.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>биостратиграфия</kwd><kwd>биохронология</kwd><kwd>фауна млекопитающих</kwd><kwd>неоген</kwd><kwd>миоцен</kwd><kwd>квартер</kwd><kwd>туролий</kwd><kwd>Северная Азия</kwd><kwd>Монголия</kwd><kwd>неотектоническое развитие</kwd><kwd>ревизия</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>biostratigraphy</kwd><kwd>biochronology</kwd><kwd>mammalian fauna</kwd><kwd>Neogene</kwd><kwd>Miocene</kwd><kwd>Quaternary</kwd><kwd>Turolian</kwd><kwd>Northern Asia</kwd><kwd>Mongolia</kwd><kwd>Khirgis Nur 2</kwd><kwd>Khyargas Nuur</kwd><kwd>neotectonic development</kwd><kwd>revision</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Данная работа выполнена при финансовой поддержке РНФ №22-17-00049 «Неотектоника и активная тектоника северной части Центральной Азии»</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The study was funded by the Russian Science Foundation, project 22-17-00049 "Neotectonics and tectonics of the northern Central Asia"</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Бадамгарав Д., Дашзэвэг Д., Девяткин Е.В., Жегалло В.И., Лискун И.Г.
