Study of relationship between hydrogeology and tectonic of Al-Sin Basin

Doctor Abdulkarim Al-abdalla

 

Abstract:

Results of this research which had been done by hydrogeological and Tectonic survey related to fresh water resources in Al-Sin Basin that the fundamental aquifer of underground water in AL-SIN region belong on Jurassic. The alimentary basin of AL-SIN spring depend upon filtration of rain water and snow throw Jurassic formation from north and north–east of basin. Direction of underground water circulation on west and south-west  where we find flow place of AL-SIN spring and submarine fresh springs near seashore. Tectonical study show the existence of fractures and fault groups with NE-SW , ENE-WSW and NW-SE directions. Groundwater movement has the same direction of fractures and faults NE-SW to ENE-WSW and Al-Sin fault structure which allow the existence of direct relation between principal jurrassic aquifer and secondary aquifer especially Cenomanian one.
