Реферат: eng: Paleogeographical reconstructions of the late Pleistocene glaciation of the Chagan-Uzun massif, which separate Chuya and Kurai intermountain depressions, are represented. The ice basin in the Jeldyskel depression on the top of the Chagan-Uzun massif had the maximum square about 80 km2 and ice thickness about 100 m. The generation of this glacier happened without preliminary stage of mountain glaciers accumulation and its development proceeded with the weak morpholithogenesis in the depression, partly dew to low-grade of its slopes. The conformity of the Kyzylchin outlet and the Chagan-Uzun glaciers moraines allows considering the Chagan-Uzun massif and the foot of the South-Chuya ridge as an area of the same glaciation - the first of the Late Pleistocene glaciations. The generation and evolution of the Jeldyskel ice basin is the result of both the depression of snow-line in the cold epoch in the beginning of the Late Pleistocene and considerable tectonic uplift of the Chagan-Uzun massif by this time.
