The geological framework for Hvideklint, south-east Denmark, using glaciodynamic sequence stratigraphy

Glaciodynamic sequence stratigraphy provides a practical model for grouping and classifying complex geological data to aid interpretation of past climatic and environmental development in Quaternary successions. The principles of glaciodynamic sequence stratigraphy are applied here to summarise the complex glacial geological framework of Hvideklint on the island of Møn, south-east Denmark. The framework of the superimposed deformed Hvideklint is presented in a reconstructed geological cross-section of Hvideklint. For the construction of the architecture of the glaciotectonic complex, the interpretation of structures below sea level was based on a detailed new survey of the cliff section combined with construction of successive approximation balanced cross-sections. The new description is supported by drill hole data from the Jupiter database. Where chalk is not glaciotectonically deformed, the constructed depth to the top-chalk-surface is generally located about 30 m below sea level. In Hvideklint, thrust sheets with chalk are exposed 20 m above sea level, and the balanced cross-section constructions indicate that the décollement surface for a Hvideklint glaciotectonic complex is located about 80 m below sea level. Between the décollement level and the top of the complex, two or more thrust-fault flat-levels and connecting ramps add to the complex architecture of Hvideklint.

ON THE METHODICS OF MATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF POLLUTION OF HYDROLITHOSPHERE BY PETROLEUM PRODUCTS (EXEMPLIFIED BY KURSK OIL TERMINAL)

A potential threat of pollution of hydrolithosphere with petroleum and its products due to accidental and technological leaks on a certain industrial object has been analyzed. The author's method of mathematical modelling is described that allows to perform an adequate dynamic modelling of a petroleum products lens in an aquifer. Execution of the resulting model allows to forecast behavior of petroleum products in the conditions of a real geological and hydro-geological cross-section.

SUBMARINE HYDROGEOLOGICAL STRUCTURES AND UNDERGROUND WATERS OF THE SEA OF OKHOTSK REGION

The results of multi-year regional geological, geophysical, oil, and hydrogeological exploration related to the study of seas and oceans were used to characterize the submarine hydrogeological structures of the Sea of Okhotsk region - hydrogeological massifs, artesian and volcanogenic basins. The hydrogeological stratification of the geological cross-section was performed, according to which five Cenozoic aquifer systems were distinguished in the artesian basins. The chemical composition of submarine groundwater was characterized, whose mineralization decreases with depth from 27–30 g/dm3 to14–20 g/dm3. Gases (mainly methane) and thermal waters forming orebodies of metallic sulfides and non-metallic minerals are discharged into the bottom sea waters along zones of tectonic faults.

Geological study in Tal - Talekhu section of Manang District along the Besisahar – Chame Road

The section between Tal to Talekhu of Manang District lacks the detailed geological study. The geological mapping in the scale of 1:50,000 followed by the preparation of geological cross-section and lithostratigraphic column has been done in the present study. The studied area lies partially in the Higher Himalayan Crystalline and the Tibetan Tethys Sequence. The units of the Higher Himalayan Group from Tal to Talekhu consists mainly of vigorous to faintly calcareous gneiss, migmatitic gneiss, quartzite, granite, etc. They are named as the Calc. Silicate Gneiss and Paragneiss and the Orthogneiss and Granite units. The lowermost part of the Tibetan Tethys consisted of metamorphosed calcareous rocks containing silicates and feldspar, so this unit is termed as the Marble and Calc. Gneiss. The section is about 9 km in thickness and is highly deformed with presence of igneous rocks at many places.
