Abstract in English
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.
