Abstract. In the western part of the Uimon depression of the Altai Mountains, during the 2023 field season, additional measurements were carried out using electrical tomography along three profiles to clarify the structure of the area with basement rocks exposed to the surface. During the study, the results of three-dimensional inversion were obtained taking into account new electrical tomography data, and a refined geoelectric model of the study area was constructed. To verify the resulting model, 2D and 3D numerical modeling was performed with the help of which the geometric dimensions and electrical resistivity of bedrock outcrops were justified. The influence of the daytime surface topography on geoelectric sections in mountainous regions with significant differences in elevation on the earth's surface has been shown. Determining the structure of the depressions is necessary to understand the stages of neotectonic formation of the Uimon depression and the entire region, as well as to assess the seismic hazard of the Altai Mountains. In the course of further research, it is possible to trace the object to a greater depth (~100 m) using a three-electrode electrical tomography installation or alternative equipment with an increased size of the measuring-generator cable.
