DEKORP 4N
- NW part, Saxothuringian: increased reflectivity along selected bands in the upper crust (around 4 s TWT), indicative of slightly dipping and sub-horizontal thrusts,
- Central part, boundary zone and KTB site: strong reflective band in the middle crust, representing a prominent overthrust zone of the Moldanubian onto the Saxothuringian,
- SE part, Moldanubian: different dips in the upper and lower crusts with:
- a) NW-dipping reflections within the upper crust, representing either (1) slip faults or (2) thrusts from an indentation or interfingering process,
- b) many SE-dipping reflective bands within the lower crust, indicating a continuation of Moldanubian planes down to the lowermost crust.
DEKORP 4Q
Strong reflectivity in the lower crust, but only weak indications of the steep-angle fault zone of the "Bavarian Pfahl".
KTB 8501 - KTB 8506
- KTB 8501 - KTB 8503 (NE-SW trending, perpendicular to DEKORP 4N, KTB drilling site):
- sediments of the Permo-Carboniferous and younger are offset at the Franconian Line,
- NE-dipping strong reflections northeast of the Franconian Line are related to the Erbendorf Body,
- strong Moho reflections indicate a crustal thickness of about 30 km.
- KTB 8504 - KTB 8506 (NW-SE trending, parallel to DEKORP 4N, KTB drilling site)
- strong reflections from the sedimentary basin west of the Franconian Line,
- SE-dipping reflections, showing a strongly imbricated structure probably related to the Erbendorf Body,
- SE of the KTB drilling site.
