Abstract
Abstract The Plio-Quaternary permeable bodies of the Mamora (Morocco). Geometry and structural influences. The geometrical configuration of the western Mamora basin highlighted a partition in horsts and grabens in the southern part and a system of three geological units (U1, U2, and U3) in the northern part. Two great structures have been deduced from this study: (1) the Rabat–Kenitra fault belonging to the ‘sheared West-Mesetian zone’ family, (2) the K2S fault depending of the important Hercynian Rabat–Tiflete fault. The depressions identified in the Mamora contain the Pliocene aquifer formations which overlay the impermeable Mio-Pliocene blue marls.
