Abstract:
This study has been conducted on Al Bordy area, which lies between latitudes N31°48'16.51
N31°43'14.91and E25°00'18.09 E25°06'55.07 on the sea coast of eastern Libya, The area has
specified geological features, where the different rock formation exhibit good exposures that
give a clear view about the stratigraphic column. The exposed formations are Al Gaghbub, Al
Faidiyah and Al Khowaymat.
The target of study is to evaluate some characterization features e.g. lithology, stratigraphic
analysis, fossil distribution, structural and tectonic setting.
The technical simulation models and geographic information system (GIS) software have been
applied to interpret some geologic structures such as faulting, fractures, cracks and folding as
well as the effect of stresses on formation strata.
The field observations and the obtained data revealed that the area has affected by variable
geological factors and changes in depositional environments, in addition to tectonic
movements that led to the formation of various structures such as anticline and syncline folds,
normal faults and unconformities
