Die Trasse des Straßentunnels verläuft et was westlich des Eisenbahntunnels, dessen geologische Verhältnisse von TELLER (1914) dokumentiert wurden. Beide Tunnel queren die süd lichen Karawanken, die im Norden von der Periadriatischen Naht begrenzt werden und im Süden von der Save-Störungszone. Die Vortriebsarbeiten wurden durchgehend geologisch dokumentiert, wobei die Untersuchungen geologische Kartierung, systematische Probenahme, hydrogeologische Beobachtungen, Konvergenz-, Methangas- sowie sporadische Gesteinstemperatur-Messungen umfaßten. Gleichzeitig wurde eine geologische Detailkarte 1:5000 des überlagernden Geländeabschnittes angefertigt. Der slowenische Abschnitt des Straßentunnels durchteuft folgende lithostratigraphische Einheiten: 0-315 m Hangschutt und Moränenmaterial, 315-911 m Werfener Schichten, 911-1098 m Grödener Schichten mit tektonisch eingeschuppten Zwischenlagen von Bellerophon-Schichten, 1098-1703 m Grödener Schichten und Tarviser Breccie, 1703-2610m klastische Gesteine und Karbonate des Oberkarbon-Unterperm, 2610-2654 m dunkelgrauen kieseligen Dolomit, 2654-2767 m Werfener Schichten, 2767-2830 m Anisdolomit, 2830-2851 m Uggowitzer Breccie, 2851-3258 m Schierndolomit und von 3258-3436 m (Staatsgrenze) terrigene Raibler Schichten. Sowohl der Straßen- als auch der Eisenbahntunnel durchqueren fünf Ost-West streichende tektonische Einheiten (Text-Fig.1), die im Bereich der beiden Tunnel einerseits von der NW-SE verlaufenden subvertikalen Mlinca-Störung durchschnitten werden sowie von der NE-SW ausgerichteten steilstehenden und zylindrisch geformten Hrusenski-Störung. Beide Störungen repräsentieren Strike-slip faults; dies gilt auch für die Koschuta- und Gratschenitzen-Störung auf der österreichischen Seite. Author's address: Mag.

Cestni predor se zacenja dobrih dvesto metrov zahodneje od zelezniskega, ki so ga zgradili pred 95 leti in ga je dobro opisal TELLER (1914). Oba predora sekata juzne Karavanke, ki so na tem obmocju omejene s periadriatskim sivom na severu in s savskim prelomom na jugu. Med napredovanjem smo predor stalno podrobno kartirali, sistematicno vzorcevali kamnine, opazovali hidrogeoloske razmere, merili kon- vergence, koncentracije metana in obcasno temperaturo kamnine. Istocasno smo izdelali novo geolosko karto povrsine v merilu 1:5000. Na slovenski strani je predor presekal naslednje litostratigrafske enote: 0-315 m pobocni grusc in moreno, 315-911 m werfensko forma- cijo, 911-1098 m grödensko formacijo s tektonskimi vlozki belerofonske formacije, 1098-1703 m grödensko formacijo in trbisko breco, 1703-2610 m zgornjekarbonske-spodnjepermske klastite in karbonate, 2610-2654 m temnosiv silificirani dolomit, 2654-2767 m werfensko formacijo, 2767-2830 m anizicni dolomit, 2830-2851 m ukovsko breco, 2851-3258 m schlernski dolomit in 3258-3436 m (drzavna meja) ra- beljske terigene plasti. Cestni in zelezniski predor sekata pet tektonskih enot. Te enote imajo obliko pasov, ki potekajo v smeri vzhod- zahod, in jih na obmocju cestnega in zelezniskega predora presekata navpicni mlinski prelom - ta tece od severozahoda proti jugovzhodu - in strmi hrusenski pre- lom, ki ima smer severovzhod- jugozahod, njegova prelomna ploskev pa je cilindricno povita. Oba preloma sta zmicna. Tudi Kosutin in grace- niski prelom na avstrijski strani sta zmicna. Abstract During the Karavanke road tunnel excavation - from 1986 to 1989 - geologists had an excellent opportunity for a detailed investigation of the western part of the southern Karavanke zone. The road tunnel runs near and to the west of the railway tunnel. The geology of the rail way tunnel was well documented by TELLER (1914). Both tunnels cross the southern Karavanke Mountains, which border on the Periadriatic lineament in the north and the Sava fault in the south. The excavation was continuously documented by detailed geological mapping, systematic rock sampling, hydrogeological observations, convergence measurements, methane measurements and by sporadic rock temperature measurements. At the same time a new surface geological map at a scale of 1: 5000 was made. The Slovene side of the tunnel intersects the following lithostratigraphic units: 0- 315 m slope debris and moraine, 315-911 m Werfen Formation, 911-1098 m Gröden Formation with tectonical intercalations of the Bellerophon Formation, 1098-1703 m Gröden formation and Trbiz/Tarvis breccia, 1703-2610 m Upper Carboniferous- Lower Permian clastic rocks and carbonates, 2610-2654 m dark grey silicified do lomite, 2654-2767 m Werfen Formation, 2767-2830 m Anisian dolomite, 2830-2851 m Ukve/Uggowitz breccia, 2851-3258 m Schiern do lomite and 3258-3436 m (state boundary) the Rabelj/Raibl terrigenous beds. The road and the railway tunnels traverse five tectonical units (Text-Fig. 1). These units have a shape of E-W trending belts, intersected at the place of the road and railway tunnels by the NW-SE oriented subvertical Mlinca fault and the NE-SW oriented steep, cylindrical^ sha ped Hrusenski fault. Both are strike-slip faults. The Kosuta/Koschuta fault and the Gratschenitzen/Gracenica fault on the Austrian side are also of a strike slip character. 1. Introduction 2.
