East European Platform or Russian Platform is a large and flat area covered by sediments in Eastern Europe spanning from the Ural Mountains to the Tornquist Zone and from the Peri-Caspian Basin to the Barents Sea. Over geological time the platform area has experienced extension, inversion and compression. It has an area of about 6 million km2. The East European Platform sediments can be classified into the following groups: a "protoplatform" of metamorphosed sediments at the bottom, a "quasiplatform" of slightly deformed sediments, a "cataplatform", and a "orthoplatform" at the top. The Mesoproterozoic Jotnian sediments of the Baltic area are examples of a "quasiplatform". The oldest preserved continuous sedimentary cover in the platform date to the Vendian about 650 million years ago. The

| - East European Platform or Russian Platform is a large and flat area covered by sediments in Eastern Europe spanning from the Ural Mountains to the Tornquist Zone and from the Peri-Caspian Basin to the Barents Sea. Over geological time the platform area has experienced extension, inversion and compression. It has an area of about 6 million km2. The East European Platform sediments can be classified into the following groups: a "protoplatform" of metamorphosed sediments at the bottom, a "quasiplatform" of slightly deformed sediments, a "cataplatform", and a "orthoplatform" at the top. The Mesoproterozoic Jotnian sediments of the Baltic area are examples of a "quasiplatform". The oldest preserved continuous sedimentary cover in the platform date to the Vendian about 650 million years ago. The cycles of deposition of platform sediments are related to the development of nearby orogenies like the Timanide orogeny, the Uralian orogeny, the Hercynian orogeny and the Caledonian orogeny. The platform hosts numerous ancient rifts or aulacogens some of which date to the Riphean of the Proterozoic.In the Late Devonian rifting and magmatic activity occurred within the platform leading to the formation of the Dnieper-Donets Rift. This event was possibly caused by a cluster of mantle plumes. (en)

- Het Oost-Europees Platform of Russisch Platform is in de geologie en geomorfologie een geologische provincie die de Baltische staten, Wit-Rusland, het noordoosten van Polen en grote delen van Europees Rusland beslaat. Het is een relatief vlak gebied waaronder zeer oude, stabiele lithosfeer ligt. Geologisch gezien wordt het Oost-Europees Platform in het westen door de Tornquistlijn, in het oosten door de Oeral, in het noorden door het Baltisch Schild en in het zuiden door het Oekraïens Schild begrensd. Net als de Baltische en Oekraïense schilden bestaat de lithosfeer onder het Oost-Europees Platform uit de zeer oude gesteenten van het Oost-Europees Kraton. In tegenstelling tot de twee schilden vormen deze gesteenten in het Oost-Europees Platform een kristallijne sokkel die overdekt wordt door jongere gesteentelagen. (nl)
