Based on the interpretation of seismic profiles, salt structures in the eastern margin of the Precaspian Basin and their relationships with Ural orogeny were analyzed. The salt structures in this study area include salt diapirs, salt pillows, salt rollers, salt welds, turtle structures and mini-basins, which are featured by the zonation of deformation. There are zones of salt weld, salt rollers, salt pillows, and salt diapirs from the east to the west. Salt controls the tectonic deformation of the suprasalt and the subsalt, in which normal faults and thrust faults were developed, respectively.
