The volume sets the research results and approaches to reconstructing the environments of the Early Precam-brian sedimentation out. This serves as a basis of identifying the reference sections and boundary stratotypes of major units of the metamorphosed and dislocated sedimentary and igneous rocks confined to the upper volcanogenic-sedimentary stratified shell of the Earth. The comparative analysis of the facies-paleogeographic and structural-petrologic (lithogenetic) features of the rocks and Preriphean and Postriphean tectonic zones shows the evolutional uniformity of depositional and stratigraphic mechanisms and criteria of paleo-geodynaraic reconstructions over the whole geological history of the Earth and for the total section of the external stratified lithospheric shell from the Archean to the Holocene inclusive.
