Vertical crustal movements on the continents as a reflection of deep-seated processes in the earth's crust and mantle: Geological effects

摘要

The large volume of studies conducted makes it possible to assert that the recent geological history of the earth is characterized by rapid vertical crustal movements, which resulted in the formation of vast elevated areas and deep depressions. The existing geological concepts do not explain accurately the nature of these processes. The author of this paper uses basic science to explain them, as well as to forecast future tectonic movements and to develop a way of prospecting for mineral deposits.
