This chapter provides a brief overview of the contents and organization of this book. A
detailed chronostratigraphic scale for the Permian and Triassic systems is presented …

Cenozoic extension in the Western Mediterranean has been related to the dynamics of back‐
arc domains. Although, in most of its orogenic belts extension propagated into the fore‐arc …

Active shortening structures in Northern Tunisia have developed by tectonic inversion since
the Pliocene, after Late Miocene extensional collapse of the whole region. Restored Plio …

This paper resolves the structural complexity of Cenozoic sedimentary basins in
northeastern Tunisia. These basins trend NE-SW to∼ EW, and are bordered by old fracture …

Abstract In Tunisia, Africa-Eurasia convergence resulted in the Tell fold-and-thrust belt
(FTB), part of the Tell-Rif (or Maghrebides), associated, to the south, to the Atlas intra …

We present several structural transects throughout the internal part of the Tunisian Tell
focusing on some representative structures and domains. We used also an interpreted …

Tunisia is part of the south-Tethyan margin, which comprises Triassic evaporites and a thick
series of Jurassic and Cretaceous, mainly marine deposits, related to the Tethyan rifting …

The Djebba district hosts hypogene Pb–Zn sulfides and two successive stages of supergene
Pb–Zn–Fe–V mineralization. This study mainly focuses on the supergene karstic vanadium …

The Hedil region in northern Tunisia shows several geological structures associated with
intense tectonic deformations that induced genesis of overthrusts and tectonic imbrications …

The Triassic outcrop in the Bazina structure is known among the largest massif in northern
Tunisia. Its tectonic setting and sub-surface geometry are related to geodynamics and …
