Abstract
Geochemical features of the rocks of the Rusinovsky complex of the crystalline basement of Belarus are revealed. The rocks are characterized by normal alkalinity, high magnesia, low and medium alumina content, low iron content, except for diabases. In the trace element composition of rocks depletion with LILE elements (Sr, Ba, Zr, Nb) and increased content of Cr, Ni and C were observed. Two petrochemical series are distinguished in the rocks: magnesian (gabbroids) and titanium-ferruginous (diabase).
