The Münsterdorf sinkhole cluster: void origin and mechanical failure [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2023
Since 2004, collapse sinkholes occur on the sports field of Münsterdorf, a village north of Hamburg in Germany. The sinkholes, around 2–5 m in diameter and 3–5 m deep, develop in peri-glacial sand, which at around 20 m depth is underlain by Cretaceous ...

Salt Units of the Kribi-Campo Sub-Basin Revisited, Using Offshore 2D Seismic and Boreholes Data: Depositional Context and Petroleum Implications

open access: yesProceedings, 2023
This work re-examines the salt unit through the Kribi-Campo sub-basin on the southeast part of the Cameroon Atlantic Margin. The results obtained from borehole data analysis show the occurrence of an evaporitic unit, localized in the Kribi area. The well

Association of oil-hydrogen and salt accumulation from the position of the technology of structural-thermo-atmo-geological-geochemical studies

open access: yesМінеральні ресурси України, 2023
The logistics of structural-thermo-atmo-geological-geochemical technology is justified, which consists of a comprehensive approach to substantiating the regularities of spatial-temporal functioning of oil-salt fluid transport systems, creating geological

Tectonic evolution of the Triassic diapirs in the southern front of the Rif belt, Northern Morocco

open access: yesGeogaceta, 2022
Located at the front of the external Pre-Rif, northern Morocco, at the edge between the Rif cordillera and the Saiss neogen basin, Triassic diapirs constitute one of the main features of this area, occurring within the Meso-Cenozoic allochthonous ...

The role of gravitational collapse in controlling the evolution of crestal fault systems (Espírito Santo Basin, SE Brazil) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A high-quality 3D seismic volume from offshore Espírito Santo Basin (SE Brazil) is used to assess the importance of gravitational collapse to the formation of crestal faults above salt structures.

Salt Diapirism in Central Utah: ABSTRACT [PDF]

open access: yesAAPG Bulletin, 1983
In central Utah, many complex structures in the transition zone between the Colorado Plateau Province and the Great Basin can be explained by salt diapirism. Flowage of rock salt (halite) in the Arapien Shale (Middle Jurassic) has forced up the enveloping mudstones, which in turn have bowed up younger consolidated strata to form elongate, linear ...

Influence of salt in the tectonic development of the frontal thrust belt of the eastern Cordillera (Guatiquía area, Colombian Andes) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Geological maps, seismic lines and data from a dry exploration well are used to develop a new structural model for a segment of the eastern foothills of the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia, emphasizing the role of salt tectonics.
