Abstract
The peculiarities of the crustal structure within the Falkland Basin have been discussed. Maps of the free-air and Bouguer (2.3 g/cm3) gravity anomalies and their transforms have been made. The complex analysis of the anomalous gravity field has allowed us to confirm the continental origin of the crust. The zoning of the crust has been performed. The crust is thinned and is enriched in basic and ultrabasic intrusions. A map demonstrating the distribution of the faults within the studied water area has been made. A conclusion has been reached about the leading role played by tension processes throughout the evolution of the crust within the studied water area.
