An unknown complex of seismogenic deformations of the reverse-strike-slip-fault type has been discovered and studied in the zone of the Tunka Fault, one of the main taphrogenic structures in the Baikal region. The specific morphology of the deformations and characteristic dimensions of the structural features permitted us to estimate the magnitude (6.2 in one variant and 6.7–6.9 in another) and relative age (younger than 6.5 ka) of the seismic event that gave rise to these deformations. A relationship between the intensity of exogeodynamic processes and impulsive tectonic movements is established.
