Scientific paper

An examination of photomap sheet B-2 obtained from Venera 15 and 16 radar data indicates that submeridional ridge belts at 175 to 245 deg E were produced by the extension of the lithosphere and the intrusion of linear magmatic bodies, forming ridges and banks on the surface. Latitudinal (normal to the belts) fault systems are visible on plain strips between the belts. The belt system as a whole is symmetric with respect to the axis along 200 to 210 deg E, where several hot spots are located.
