N2 - The paper provides evidence that collisional magmatism related to the Neoproterozoic (880−860 Ma) orogenic event occurred in the southwest of the Siberian Craton. Newly obtained data are presented on the major-component and trace-element composition, U−Pb (SHRIMP II) zircon age, and Sm−Nd isotope composition for rocks of the Gusyanka granitoid massif in the Yenisei fault zone of the Yenisei Ridge. The concordant U−Pb zircon age of the Gusyanka massif is 871 ± 11 Ma indicates that its rocks were formed in the mid-Early Neoproterozoic, simultaneously with the rocks of the Kalama and Eruda massifs in the Tatarka−Ishimba fault system, during the same stage of the collisional events at approximately 880–860 Ma. The calc-alkaline granites, granodiorites, and leucogranites of the Gusyanka massif are classified, on the basis of their high alumina content and trace element composition, as S-type and were derived from a metapelitic source. Many trace-element parameters of rocks of the Kalama and Eruda massifs correspond to those of low-potassium I-type granites, which were most likely derived from mafic rocks and tonalites. The granitoids of the Gusyanka massif, on the one hand, and the Kalama and Middle Tyrada massifs, on the other, differ contrastingly in Nd isotope composition. The source of the former was either metapelites of the Tungusik Group or metasedimentary rocks of the Sukhoi Pit Group, with the involvement of juvenile material. The melts of granites of the Kalama and Middle Tyrada massifs might have been derived from a source with the involvement of an older, possibly Paleoproterozoic, crustal material and a juvenile mafic source. Thus, the orogenic events at 880−860 Ma led to the generation of melts at different levels of the Paleo- to Mesoproterozoic crust of the trans-Angara region of the Yenisei Ridge. The geodynamic history of the region is correlated with the synchronous successions and similar style of tectono-thermal events along the peripheries of the large Precambrian cratons of Laurentia and Baltica, and this is consistent with paleocontinental reconstructions of the close spatiotemporal relations between these cratons, Siberia, and their incorporation into Rodinia.
