Abstrakt: Deformations of Mesozoic sediments by ascending stocks of Devonian salt, with the accompanying growth of salt domes and brachyanticlines, generally on peripheries of Paleozoic structures (practically undisturbed by the stocks) are shown to be responsible for the various disarrangements of the regional structural plans, notwithstanding certain consistencies in tectonic evolution of the region, during Jurassic-Cretaceous-Paleogene. Economically, it is the buried structures, within the Paleozoic host sediments, that offer the best promise in prospecting for hydrocarbons, since accumulations of oil and gas had already been reported in some of them. - IGR Staff.
