An analyzing on the seismicity and the deep structure of Transbaikalia along the 1-SB profile is presented. Determined that areas of high seismicity associated with the blocks of the Earth's crust with a heterogeneous velocity structure. The site of the Baikal rift zone which is located in close proximity to the Muya earthquake (1957, M=7.6) is characterized by increased heterogeneity according to the values of P- and S-waves and of elastic parameters in the Earth’s crust upper part.
