The paper describes new data on location and kinematics of the Olyutorsky 2006 earthquake faults. Dominating among them are reverse and thrust faults with minor right-lateral component of movements. These faults break the north-west slopes of the Yakhtynyn Ridge and the Meminey Ridge, which make the south-west border the Vyvenka depression. In the south-western termination of reverse faults, the north-west striking left-lateral earthquake fault cuts the Yakhtynyn Ridge obliquely and constitute dynamically and kinematically linked structural combination with them. Earthquakes faults with dominating right-lateral component of movements are much less widespread and stretch south-east of the reverse faults system.

Keywords: Oliytorskiy earthquake, earthquake faults position, faults kinematics.
