Abstract

The ruptures within Yeghvard plateau that cut upper pliocen - upper quaternary formations were investigated. The description of these ruptures and the nature of their interaction with surrounding rocks are presented. The position of these ruptures within the general structure of Middle-Araksian trough was observed.
