Abstract
The Pavlov Hills are formed by separated limestone blocks previously identified as klippen. A new flat-ramp-flat thrust model of the Pavlov Hills is formulated in this paper. The main tectonic detachment is located at the base of the limestone plate and other subsidiary detachments are located within the nodular limestone horizon and also at the base and top of the Upper Cretaceous deposits. The ramps are situated in the Klentnice Fm and Ernstbrunn Lst. The ramp angle was determined by structural evidence combined with interpretation of seismic profiles. Two parallel antiformal structures plunging to the NE are recognized within the study area. The antiformal fold axes are gently plunging to the NE so the anticlines are not ideal for 3-point hydrocarbon trap setting. These anticlines were subsequently cut by sinistral strike-slip faults perpendicular to the fold axis which resulted in the formation of a large-scale pseudo en-echelon structure in an approximate north-south direction.
