3D geological model of the Thuringian Basin

Description

Geological 3D-model of the Thuringian Basin for the overview scale 1: 200,000 with 15 geological horizons and 59 faults. The Thuringian Basin covers an area of about 12,000 km2 and is mainly located in the Free State of Thuringia; Smaller areas belong to Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Hesse. It is bordered by the Thuringian Forest in the southwest, the Thuringian Slate Mountains in the southeast and by the Harz and Kyffhäuser in the north. Geologically, it is a hollow filled with Upper Carboniferous to Triassic sediments and subdivided into individual tectonic clods by several NW-SE faults. Liasian and Cretaceous sediments occur only in small deposits. Detailed information on the geological conditions of the Thuringian Basin is provided by SEIDEL (2003). The model was created with the software Paradigm SKUA-GOCAD at the Thuringian State Institute for the Environment and Geology as part of the BMBF-funded project ‘INFLUINS’.
