The article deals with the crystallization conditions of the mineral parageneses of the trachybasalt-trachydolerite and tephrite-teschenite complexes of the Khojavend trough. The distinguished mineral parageneses characterized crystal­liza­­tion staging of the primitive liquids of the considered comp­lexes. It was determined that accu­mu­lative megacrystal inclu­sions of the subalkaline picrite melt have been crys­tallized in the most high-pressure conditions. Mineral para­geneses of the porphyry generation of the effusive facies minerals of the tephrite-teschenite complex have been crystallized in compa­ratively more deep-seated intermediate focus during accom­paniment of the aqueous fluid. Mineral parageneses of the intrusive facies of the indicated complex have been formed in hypabyssal conditions accompanied by crystallizational-gra­vitational differentiation. Minerals of mineral parageneses ­of the trachybasalt-trachy­do­lerite com­p­lex are almost similar to each other according to compo­sition, structural and optical type and also according to the crystallization sequence. Therefore, this pa­ra­genesis crystal­lization during water dra­wing of the volatile compounds and crystallizational differen­tiation occurred in a shallow inter­mediate focus.
