In 1960–1980, the Elton and the Gremyachka deposits of potassium salts were discovered within the Permian halogen sequences in the Lower Volga Region, bischofite presence was recorded in the Privolzhskaya monocline, the conditions of halogen-bed formation were defined as those peculiar for typical evaporites. But in 1980-2010, halogenesis hypotheses emerged that denied the principal importance of climatic factor and the dominant role of oceanic waters in the brine composition of the salt-generating basin.
Carnallite-halite rocks are the elements of halogenesis’ final stage. Carnallite setting have to follow after sylvinite setting. At the real cut (Gremyachinskoye field also) such succession is disturbed and foundations of those formations proceed of potassium accumulation. Structure of those rocks reflects the receipt in basin with evaporated brine of slightly evaporated solution. NaCl and sometimes KCl are salting out and formed ground halite and rare sylvinite- carnallite rocks.
