Abstract

It is very important blind faults surface localization, especially in areas where buildings will be constructed. In this paper, the combination of geological, tectonic and geophysical data suggest the presence of a blind fault in the area west of Tatoi airport. This fault is covered by the uppermost horizons of the quaternary brecciaconglomerates of the Thrakomakedones talus.
