An examination of sheet B-6 of the Venera 15, 16 radar map of the Venus surface showed that the parquet of the Tessera Fortuna within sheet B-6 was moving toward the northwest as large slabs; in the Tessera Meshkenet, it was moving toward the east and southeast while reworking ovoids (coronas) and belts of linear dislocations. More than 0.4 million sq km of the northern plain are covered with lavas possessing a large-scale network of light bands (extrusive or tectonic). Two large subconcentric structures on the sheet may be representative of the initial stages of coronal formation.
