A number of Pleistocene sections located in the Priteletsky region of the Gorny Altai were studied in connection with the geological survey. In order to determine the age of the sediments and the features of their formation, their detailed lithological and micropaleontological studies were conducted. For the section Turochak and Malaya Chile obtained new data of absolute age. Almost all sections are dated to the second half of the Late Pleistocene, during which the taiga landscapes were repeatedly replaced by steppe ones.
