We analyzed data of the detector with the large CsI(Tl) crystal corresponding to the energy deposit >60 MeV onboard the CORONAS-I satellite. This detector measured the mixture of proton fluxes with energy >80 MeV and electron fluxes with energy >65 MeV. We assume that this mixed flux consists of GCR, atmospheric albedo and satellite local particles. We analyzed the distribution of fluxes in 12 geomagnetic longitudinal intervals in the Northern and Southern hemispheres and obtained, that the maximum of albedo deposit relatively to the GCR fluxes was observed near the geomagnetic equator and minimum was observed at high geomagnetic latitudes. For L-shells <2 we found a strong longitude dependence of particle fluxes. Such flux dependence is connected with the longitudinal variation of the geomagnetic field. Comparison of CORONAS-I data with other satellite data shows that the albedo flux consists of electron fluxes with Ee >65 MeV and proton fluxes with Ep >500 MeV.
