Abstract
A geoelectric structure of the lithosphere is constructed to a depth of 300 km on the basis of experimental electromagnetic studies along the geotraverse crossing all of the major first-order structural zones in the Northern Urals. Important constraints on the crust and upper mantle layering are obtained from electric parameters at various depth levels. Together with the compositions of rocks, including the crust of weathering, structural-tectonic relations between geological objects (complexes and faults) identified at the Earth’s surface and characteristics of the deep geoelectric structure are established in upper parts of the section.
