Abstract. Within the frame of geological mapping of 1: 200 000 scale, conducted in 2016-2018 at Faddeevskaya coverage (Northeast Taimyr) in order to compose a Quaternary map, 20 natural outcrops have been explored. A study of the material composition has been carried out, micro-palaeontological remains (spores and pollen, foraminifera, ostracods, diatoms) have been studied. The absolute age of the deposits is calculated by the radiocarbon method (12 datings), by the methods of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR - 1) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL - 9).
