The Geology of the Pelagian Block: The Margins and Basins off Southern Tunisia and Tripolitania
In a recent synthesis, Burollet (1969, 1973) defined as the Pelagian block a relatively stable area which extended from the Maltese Islands to... -
The Geology of the Pelagian Block: The Eastern Tunisian Platform
The eastern platform of Tunisia, the Tunisian section of the Pelagian block, is one of four major tectonic units which can be seen in a...
