The new Regional Stratigraphic Chart covers the most important regions of the established distribution of the Riphean deposits in the western Siberian Platform. It includes sections of development areas of the Riphean, buried under the younger sediments (the Yurubcheno-Tohomo zone, Katanga saddle), which previously belonged to the inner areas of craton. In the decisions of the All-Union Stratigraphic Meeting of 1979, approved by the Interdepartmental Stratigraphic Committee (ISC) of the USSR, they were presented in a separate stratigraphic chart on the rights of the independent region.

Keywords: western Siberian Platform, Riphean, regional stratigraphic chart, еxplanatory note.
