An integrated provenance analysis based on sandstone petrography, distribution of REE and trace elements, and U/Pb detrital zircon dating of Carboniferous sedimentary rocks of northern Verkhoyansk Fold and Thrust Belt (FTB) provides new insights into the tectonic evolution of NE Siberia. According to petrographic and geochemical data, Lower Visean sandstones had local provenance that contained mafic magmatic rocks. Wide distribution of ca. 2075. Ma detrital zircons known in the basement of neighboring Olenek and Ust'-Lena uplifts supports local provenance of the Lower Visean sandstones. Starting from Late Visean, clastic sediments have geochemical and petrographic compositions that are characteristic for erosion predominantly felsic rocks in a more remote source region. Detrital zircon age distributions in the Upper Visean - Upper Carboniferous sandstones, point to Taymyr - Severnaya Zemlya FTB and Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) as the most likely provenances for clastic rocks.
