Abstract

Large areas of Germany and neighbouring countries are formed by paleozoic rock formations. Beside large outcrops such as the mountain chains of the Rhenish Massif, paleozoic rocks also dominate the subsurface as forming the Northern Germany basement. Still, reliable data sets on thermal properties are rare. To improve this situation, paleozoic rocks samples from outcrops and drillings of North-Rhine Westfalia were investigated.
