Abstract

The results of studying the near-surface and deep structure of the mud volcano of Mt. Karabetov are presented. Based on direct observations in a specially dug trench and in the natural outcrops, together with the analysis of the structural morphological data, the structural kinematic characteristics are obtained for the fault zone associated with a mud volcano. The displacements of recent soil and overburden, as well as the topographic manifestations testify to the recent high level of mobility of the fault, whereas the natural structural parageneses suggest the primarily tectonic nature of the displacements, which is determined by the regional stress field.
