On the mapping of faults in the State Geological Map-1000/3

A draft of the Fault Map has been prepared on the topic “Fault tectonics of the Far Eastern continental part” at the Institute of Tectonics and Geophysics, FEB RAS. The reference material for developing the map was the sheets of the third-generation State Geologic Map of the Russian Federation, scale 1 : 1, 000, 000 published and approved for publication by the Rosnedra Scientific Editopial Council. Some shortcomings of fault mapping on these sheets have been detected. On some sheets major faults have not been distinguished and described in the text of the Explanatory Note; on the others, description of such faults are partly absent.
Key words:State Geologic Map, 1 : 1, 000, 000, faults.
