Study of 30 sediment samples at the laboratory and different Samples in situ (Field observation) reveals that related to Cenomanian Stage in Tartus and Safita Area. The results of this study reveals there are many, secondary and local Faults, which are related to the east Mediterranean mean Fault, which contributed in the exist joints in carbonate thin deposit Rocks, which help in quarrying the rocks. The study reveals that the cenomanian strata are represented by Deeping / shallowing-up Cycles and an interesting darkish mud sedimentary layer in Slenfa formation, and there are some other interesting sedimentary limestone and marly limestone's deposits, which contain fossils and some flint nodules and nodular limstone. The study of some of these flint nodules indicated the existent of rudistic shell within it, where as the other contain some benthic Foraminifera as Orbitolina, which reveals an Sedimentation in shallow marine environment. The study of fossils, micro Foraminifera & macro, in rock samples have prove that sedimentary rocks in the study area are related to the Cenemanian stage. The macro fossils like (Gastropods, Bivalves & Ammonites ), also we determined a layer of Oyster in the area within Hanafiah formation and Rudista layer. Result revealed that sediment deposit related to Carbonate-Platform.

The study of fracture in Kadmous and Safita showed several fracturing directions, originally related to the tectonic structure of the studied zone, especially faults. A group of dominant principal fractures, with a direction of NW-SE, a group of less importance with direction of NE-SW, and a secondary group of N-S direction, have been determined.
Middle Miocene deposits reveal the form of outcrops which are limited in area on the northern boards of the basin of AL-KABEER Al-Shemaly River. It is characterized by a large and fast changes in thickness and facies. This study focused on the res ults of careful Fossile analysis of 41 samples (hard and soft) which were taken from the three geological sections, through which the principal zones, which characterize middle Miocene, were confirmed depending on planktonic foraminifera. N9, -Orbulina suturalis-Globerotalia peripheroronda N10-N13-Globerotalia fohsi, Sphaaerodinellopsis subdehiscens- Globigrina drury , N14 – Globigerina nepenthes- Globerotalia siakensis. It was identified as benthic foraminifera, which has been characterized by its diversity and their increasing numbers in the northern boards of the Neogene basin and identify the lithology of these deposits consisting of alternations of limestone and limestone of medium hardness to very soft marl with different colors. This study also contributed to the detection of some paleogeographical development in the basin in that period of time.
The Petrological study of Clay deposits belonging to the lower Cretaceous in the northern part of South Palmyra Folding Zone. Showed they were formed as a result of weathering processes of igneous rocks within Sedimentary continental climate is ho t and wet conditions, and formed lateritic iron soil, followed by enrich, erosion and washing caused by watery agitate and re-replaced for short distances within valleys or grooves or local karst cavities, and later filled by crust erosion materials through the Cretaceous Sea transgression.
The study of volcanic dykes geometry in the southern Syrian coastal range shows that some of them are related to a tensional tectonic event, Albian dykes, and others are related to a strike-slip stress field like Pliocene dykes. Orientation of dykes is average between E-W to N-S with maximal direction of N 130- N 145. Drawing of strike-slip stress field depending upon dykes orientation shows important deviation in σ1 strike from NW-SE to E-W in the vicinity of Levant fault during Pliocene time (4.4-5.4My)
The concentrations were determined of the most basic air pollutants (SO2, H2S, CO, O3, NOx, TSP, PM10, PM2.5) in some vital areas in the Tartous city of and its surroundings using a mobile unit to measure air pollutants.
