Geology of the Salinas De Rosío Diapir (Basque-Cantabrian Basin, Spain)

Journal of Maps
This study presents a new geological map of the Salinas de Rosío diapir (Basque-Cantabrian Basin, northern Spain), based on detailed fieldwork, interpretation of high-resolution topographic data, and integration of existing geological information.

Salt deposits of the Ufimian Formation in the Solikamsk depression

Литосфера, 2018
The paleogeographic and tectonic conditions of the accumulation of Ufimian deposits (Lower Permian) were reconstructed on the basis of study more than 2000 wells within the Solikamsk depression. The most complete cross-section of the salt-marl formation (

INFLUENCE OF THE EVAPORITE FORMATION STRUCTURE ON SALT TECTONICS AND HYDROCARBON TRAPS (BY THE RESULTS OF NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF HALOKINESIS IN THE PRE-CASPIAN)

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2023
Within the Pre-Caspian sedimentary basin, there is certain regularity in the distribution of types of structures of salt tectonics. It is characterized by concentric zoning corresponding to the change in the sedimentation thickness of the evaporite ...

The Wister Mud Pot Lineament: Southeastward Extension or Abandoned Strand of the San Andreas Fault? [PDF]

, 2008
We present the results of a survey of mud pots in the Wister Unit of the Imperial Wildlife Area. Thirty-three mud pots, pot clusters, or related geothermal vents (hundreds of pots in all) were identified, and most were found to cluster along a northwest ...

Creep properties and constitutive model of diabase in deep water conveyance tunnels

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The axial and lateral creep characteristics of diabase were analyzed based on compression creep tests. The nonlinear viscoelastic‐plastic model capable of describing the whole creep process was established based on the fractional derivative and damage theories.

Deformation and evolution of Aptian salt tectonics in the central Lower Congo Basin: integrated analogue and 3D discrete element modelling

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Lower Congo Basin, a salt-rich passive-margin basin, displays complex coupling between salt tectonics and sedimentation that strongly controls hydrocarbon systems, yet the deformation mechanisms and spatiotemporal evolution of its Aptian salt ...

Deformation of intrasalt competent layers in different modes of salt tectonics [PDF]

Solid Earth, 2019
Layered evaporite sequences (LESs) comprise interbedded weak layers (halite and, commonly, bittern salts) and strong layers (anhydrite and usually non-evaporite rocks such as carbonates and siliciclastics).

Failure characteristics analysis of the inclined interlayer during water‐soluble cavity construction of underground salt caverns for large‐scale energy storage

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
In the process of water‐soluble cavern construction of salt cavern energy storage, since the interlayer does not dissolve in water easily, sudden collapse will cause engineering accidents such as bending and damage of the inner tube of the cavern.

Impact of Salt Tectonics on Temperatures Distribution Revealed by RSCM Thermometry in the SW Alps (France)

Tektonika
Evaporites have a strong impact on the structural and sedimentary evolution of sedimentary basins and fold-and-thrust belts. They also have a thermal conductivity that can be more important than other sedimentary rocks and are thus able to modify the ...

Dynamic fluvial systems and gravel progradation in the Himalayan foreland [PDF]

, 2000
Although the large-scale stratigraphy of many terrestrial foreland basins is punctuated by major episodes of gravel progradation, the relationships of such facies to hinterland tectonism and climate change are often unclear. Structural reentrants provide
