Abstract:

Mineral composition of recent bottom sediments was studied in the White Sea. A single terrigenous-mineralogical province is defined; it is characterized by a mineral association of amphibole, epidote, garnet, and pyroxene. Five regions are assigned in the White Sea in accordance with mineral composition of surface bottom sediments. We argue that granite-metamorphic rock complexes of the Baltic Shield are the main source of recent bottom sediments in the White Sea, while the East European Craton (Russian Platform) plays the secondary role.
