Analysis of anomalous magnetic field and spatial distribution of deep magnetic heterogeneities of the Ukrainian Shield (USh) evidence that morpho-structure of the Shield is not reflected in distribution of magnetic heterogeneities but the largest concentration of magnetic formations belongs to its marginal parts and slopes. Two-storied distribution of magnetic bodies in the Eatrh's crust and increased concentration of magnetic formations above deep sources have been substantiated. Petrologic-tectonic interpretation of 3D magnetic model of the Earth's crust of the USh has been given. The deep magnetic heterogeneities in the intervals of depths from 10-18 km up to petrologic Ì discontinuity belong to different petrologic types: ultramafite, mafic, phemic, sial-mafic and sialic. Dependence of rocks magnetization value on the age of their formation and cyclic character of tension regimes.
