Abstract

Lakavica graben is one of the youngest morphological sinking structures in the Republic of Macedonia, which, during the Neogene and Quaternary, are deposited sediment masses with total thickness of 300 m. Neogene sediments are represented by conglomerates, gravels, sands, clays and siltstones, which belong to the upper Pliocene. Quaternary sediments are represented by: alluvial, proluvial and diluvial layers with thickness up to 100 m. This paper presented lithostratigraphic structure of Neogene and Quaternary sediments in Lakavica graben.
