We give and analyze geological data that substantiate the validity division of Dnieper-Donets basin into two separate basins: Donets marginal-continental part that was opening from 793.00–590.75 Ma and Dnieper innerplatform with the disclosure in late Paleozoic – early Mesozoic (385.75–178.00 Ma). Territorially boundary between those margins passes between regional seismic profiles Lozovaja-Shebelinka-Staropokrivka and Mechebylovo-Bryhadyrivka. Donets Basin (Central Donbass) is a remnant continental margin of paleoocean Prototetis II, and north side of Donets basin up to the border of the Dnieper deflection – the remnant of the continental margin Prototetis I.
