AAPG Event: 15th-16th March 2018, Granada – GTW Series

Mediterranean Ridge - Backstop

• Narrower in the central part

• Less Messinian evaporites in the central part

• Change of fault direction along MR strike

• Thickness in eastern part may be greater due to Nile delta

• Backthrusted by the MR

• Compressional and transtensional tectonics

• Pre-Apulian or stacked Hellenic Nappes
