Abstract

In this study region,those fault-lines with northwestern -southeastern trend are the oldest structures of the region,whose formation is believed to date back to orogeny phase of Katanga.Besides the mentioned trend the northwestern southwestern trends also had outcrop in the studied region and recent seismic data indicate that in the studied region the active presence of North Firouzabad transpressional fault-line causes formation of fault scarps and very deep valleys and
