The kinematic characteristics of faults included in the structure of the active Katun Fault in Gorny Altai have been determined by methods of structuralparagenetic and cataclastic analysis of disjunctives (faults). It is proven that the Katun Fault is a strike-slip fault developing in different areas under transpressive or transtensional conditions. The most recent grabens along the Katun fault were formed under conditions of strike-slip displacements and locally manifested horizontal extension or extension with shear.
