Abstract

The area of study is located in NW of ZAGROS FOLD-THRUST BELT, between Kazerun and Balarud faults (Dezful zone). This part of the belt shows a complex structure, is affected by subsurface lineaments possibly during late Alpine orogeny. Detail assessment of landsat images together with geomagnetic and earthquake data resulted in identification on subsurface SHEAR-TRANSVERSE FAULTS. Two sets of such transverse faults were identified using curved geometry of foreland folds and geometry of newly developed folds. First set, oriented NNW-SSE shows right-lateral strike-slip movement and developed more than that of the second set, oriented NE-SW and demonstrates left-lateral strike-slip movement. There are similarities between the orientation of these lineaments with the geomagnetic FAULT LINEAMENTS which identify BASEMENT FAULTS in the Zagros and northern margin of the Arabian platform. This, together with depth of the earthquakes, related to reactivation of these fault English Abstracts of Farsi Papers lineaments, implicitly reveals that these FAULT LINEAMENTS are likely deep seated BASEMENT FAULTS. Most of these lineaments were not identified and cannot be seen on the same scale geological maps. This demonstrates the significance of implication of landsat images and aeromagnetic data on verifications of such deep seated FAULT LINEAMENTS. It is proposed that newly generated folds by these basement fault sets, can be a prospective goal in hydrocarbon exploration in Zagros foreland fold-thrust Belt.
