Summary

The reason for deep troughs formation due to eclogitization of basalts and gabbro can be explained by example of Kura depression. As a result of it density of new formations exceeds the same in surrounding rocks and this causes their immersion into the mantle and formation of troughs. Flank pressure influences on this process which is due to movement of Arabian plate in NE direction towards Kura depression and as a result of it rising movements prevail in intertrough space forming horsts, domes and others where easily fusible magma fractions injection occurs. Crust lamination which is observed both at depths and on day surface is result of gravitational division of magma matter.
Subjective reasons affect the quality of petrological interpretation. Unification is necessary as methodic means of geophysical research and for petrological interpretation of this data.
