According to the results of geophysical data interpretation considered the structural features of the Khatanga-Lomonosov fracture zones (HLZ), adapted to the strip joint part on the Laptev Sea continental margin with the structures of the spreading of the Eurasian basin and the Lomonosov ridge. Its reflection in anomalous geophysical fields, in a wave seismic picture on sections is shown on the example of separate links of HLZ and the character of its kinematic interrelations with heterogeneous tectonic elements is illustrated. The tectonic nature, role and place of this fault zone in the geodynamic evolution of the region are substantiated.
