Abstract/NotesThe Vendian–Silurian succession from a series

of boreholes in northeast Germany has been petrographically

and geochemically investigated. Evidence suggests that the more

northerly Vendian and

Cambrian succession was deposited on a craton which became

increasingly unstable in Ordovician times.

Similarly, the Ordovician-age succession deposited in the

RĂĽgen area indicates a strongly active continental

margin tectonic setting for the same period. By Silurian times

the region was once more relatively tectonically

quiescent. Although complete closure of the Tornquist Sea was

not complete until latest Silurian times,

the major changes in tectonic regime in the Eastern

Avalonia/Baltica area recorded from the Ordovician suggest

that a significant degree of closure occurred during this time.
