Data inversions are considered in terms of conductance distribution. Below the depth of 450 km a sharp increase of conductivity begins. Throughout the whole area a layer of high conductivity can be selected with thickness of about 200 km with the center at a depth of 750 km. A single conductive layer at the depth of 100—200 km, was not revealed as a result of this study. In the vicinity of the Minsk observatory local objects with increased conductivity at different depths in the crust have been marked. |
