    Annotation Carbonate rocks of the Lower Carboniferous (Tournaisian stage) of the central Volga–Ural basin (the eastern portion of the East European platform) are of practical scientific interest to geologists, particularlybecause they contain large reserves of oil. Although such layers have been studied, various questions pertaining to development of sedimentation schemes for the rocks have not been answered. We have attempted to resolve these by studying a wealth of drill core materials. The study involved structural and genetic analysis of rocks and facies reconstructions. The rocks are mainly represented by different types of shallowwater limestone. The thickness of coeval layers and their lithological structures changes from well to well within an oilfield, primarily due to the different environments of sedimentation during the Tournaisian stage. Therefore, to identify the characteristics of carbonate sedimentation, we have studied the sequences of different types of limestone and analysed ..
