New geological observations between the Jura and the Alps in the Geneva area, as derived from reflection seismic data

SIGNER, Claude, GORIN, Georges Edouard

Abstract

Un total de 350 km de données de sismique réflexion a été interprété dans le bassin genevois et le Plateau des Bornes. Après calibration avec des puits pétroliers, dix réflecteurs sismiques ont pu être identifiés de manière relativement continue dans un intervalle stratigraphique allant du Cénozoique au Paléozoïque. Cette interprétation permet de corréler entre elles les informations tectoniques et lithologiques provenant des différents affleurements mésozoïques et cénozoïques environnants. De plus, l'identification d'une série sédimentaire permo-carbonifère aboutit à une carte schématique d'un niveau proche du sommet du socle:

cela permet d'analyser la relation structurale potentielle existant entre le Paléozoïque et le Mésozoïque-cénozoïque. La tectonique de la région genevoise est dominée par l'existence de linéaments permo-carbonifères orientés SW-NE et NW-SE. qui ont rejoué à différentes périodes jusqu'à l'actuel: - Les linéaments SW-NE coïncident avec le front des massifs subalpins, des unités préalpines et du chevauchement du Salève. Ils se marquent par des [...]
