Abstract

The morphology of the surface of the consolidated basement of the Carpathians has been analyzed using magnetotelluric sounding. This surface has an extensive regional slope trending northwest-southeast. In the Krynica - Wysowa region it is broken and the western part has been moved around 45 km to the south. South of the recognized slope. the consolidated basement of the Carpathians reaches a depth of 17 km. This may be the southern boundary of unmetamorphosed platform deposits under the Carpathians.
