Middle-Urals Ring Structure

The Middle-Urals Ring Structure (MURS) is a circular structure located in the central Ural Mountains. The structure has a diameter in the range of 400 to 550 km and formed in the Precambrian prior to the Uralian orogeny. The structure is reflected in the bend of Ural Mountains at 56° N and in a concentric-radial drainage pattern seen in the Belaya and Kama rivers and their tributaries.
