Day 4. Start in Varzuga village at 8.00. Finish in Kandalaksha at 20.00. Total transportations 250 km. Hiking at stop 11about 1,5 km, at stop 12 no more than 500 m. Excursion 6. Upper Pleistocene marine sediments in the southern Kola Peninsula Upper Pleistocene marine sediments are available to study in the western Terskii Coast of the White Sea (Fig. 4.1), where differently aged interglacial sediments are exposed along the steep slopes of river valleys. Fig. 4.1. Location of the studied area (A, B) and examined exposures (C) in the southern Kola Peninsula. Collected samples were dated using the electron spin resonance (ESR) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) method (Molod’kov, Yevzerov, 2004, Korsakova et al., 2004) which made it possible to specify the geological--stratigraphic position of interglacial marine sedimentary units. In various examined sections, marine sediments constitute three differently aged sequences separated by stratigraphic unconformities that suggest three Late Pleistocene transgressions (Fig. 4.2). The number and age of these transgressions recorded in sedimentary sequences of the Kola region remain debatable issues. Three glacial units correlated with the Moscovian glaciation and two Valdaian glaciations are also established. The stratigraphically lower marine sequence, previously called the Ponoi Beds (Gudina, Evzerov, 1973) is characterized by abundant macro- and microfaunal remains and diatoms. The ESR/OSL-age of the Ponoi Beds ranges from approximately 120-130 to 100-105 ka (Korsakova et al., 2004). This unit, which is composed of compact clays, loams, sandy loams, 45
