Abstract
The article discusses paleomagnetic research conducted at the Perimbel intersection of the Talysh structure, located near the village of Yardimli district. The intersection is mainly composed of the Ru pel, Hatt and Sakaraul regiolevels of the Maykop stratum. The stratigraphy and paleomagnetism of the Talysh structure have not been studied to the full extent. Paleomagnetic research was conducted to clarify the detailed stratigraphic age distribution of the collected rock samples. We know that during the Maykop period (6-33 million years ago), the magnetic field was subject to frequent changes in location, that is, the Earth's magnetic field changed its location frequently - an inversion event oc curred. The results of scientific research conducted on samples taken from the Perimbel intersection of the Talysh structure prove this fact. Based on the results of the analyses, we can say that in the Oligocene and Lower Miocene, 2 hyperzones were identified separately: in the Rupel regiolevel - nor mal and reverse polarity alternated (samples 13-16); Hatt regiolevel - has a direct magnetization (sam ples 5-13); Sakaraul regiolevel - is characterized by a reverse magnetization (samples 1-5). Analysis of both the paleomagnetic and mineralogical composition of the samples taken from the stud ied area was carried out in the laboratory of the ARETN Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Depart ment of "Dynamic Geology". The boundaries of the Rupel, Hatt, and Sakaraul regiolevels were precisely defined and the paleomagnetic scale was compared with scales established for rocks of the same age taken from other areas, with the scale established for the Absheron Peninsula, and with the Bergrener et al. (1995) scale.
