ABSTRACT
The deepwater area of the Nile Delta is within the eastern Mediterranean basin on the
Nile Delta Cone between the Herodotus abyssal plain to the west and the Levant basin to
the east. The complex evolution and interaction of the African, Eurasian and Arabian
plates have shaped the Late Miocene to Recent Nile Cone and its substratum. The tectono-
stratigraphic framework is controlled by deep-seated basement structures with distinct
gravity and magnetic expressions, and by the interaction of the NW-trending Misfaq-
Bardawil (Temsah) and NE-trending Qattara-Eratosthenes (Rosetta) fault zones. In
addition, significant salt-induced deformation of a Messinian evaporitic sequence up to
4,000 m thick has occurred, together with large-scale rotational block movement. The
deformational pattern is largely the result of multiphase tectonic movements along pre-
existing basement faults on the continental margin of the Neo-Tethys ocean.
The Nile Cone consists of late Paleogene to Late Miocene sedim
