Abstract
The main galleries of the Abel sink hole near Grasse (Alpes Maritimes, France) are developed along a main thrust fault. The study of speleothems clear y proves movement of this fault. The fractures indicate a north-south movement, they are not fossilised by new calcite. A large rock placed under the fault plane rotated during the movement. The soda straws fixed to the rock are curved. This allows an estimation of the movement speed. © Elsevier, Paris
