SASEG Annual Conven.On SASEG Annual Conven.on FIELD TRIP Sunday 23 June 2019 Field trip Leader: Prof. Dr. Andrea Moscariello Dr. Silvia Omodeo Salé Introduction The area studied here corresponds to the westernmost extension of the Alpine Molasse basin. We shall concentrate on the area referred to as “Greater Geneva area”, which covers the Canton Geneva and surrounding France. It is comprised between the Alpine front to the southeast (marked by the Prealps and Subalpine Massifs in figure 1) and by the Jura mountain range to the northwest. Within the Molasse basin of the Geneva area, the small SW-NE trending range of the Salève and its southwestern extension are incorporated within the Jura domain (Fig. 1). The Greater Geneva area is limited to the southwest by the NW-SE trending Vuache Mountain, also part of the Jura. Tectonic framework of the western part of the Swiss Molasse basin This field trip will present the general structural features and lineaments affecting the Geneva Basin, as well as its overall stratigraphy illustrated through Mesozoic carbonate and Cenozoic 1 Molasse outcrops. The theme of potential georesources in several stratigraphic intervals in the area will be addressed. The field trip will consist of 4 stops. Stop 1 at the top of the Mount Salève gives a general overview of the main structural elements constituting and delimiting the Geneva Basin (or “Geneva cuvette”). Stop 2 and 3 are located in France along the Vuache Fault Zone, an ancient geothermal conduit today exhumed; Stop 4 is located in the Canton of Geneva and will visit the locally bitumen-impregnated Cenozoic Molasse derived from Toarcian organic-rich shales.

From this point of view the morphologic expression of the Geneva Basin (or Geneva Basin) bounded to the southeast by the Salève range, to the northwest by the folded Jura, and to the southwest by the Vuache Mountain is well visible. To the NE, the lake Geneva extends for ca 72 km separating the Prealps reliefs and the Swiss Plateau. To the west the Fort de l’Ecluse gorge separating the Vuache Mountain from the folded Jura, where the Rhône River exits the Geneva Basin it is visible. The backbone of these surrounding mountain ridges is made of outcropping Mesozoic carbonates. A geological cross-section of the Geneva Basin can be established from 2D seismic data. It extends from the Alpine front in the southeast up to the Vuache Mountain in the northwest. 2 Geological cross-section across the Greater Geneva area derived from 2D seismic lines. This section crosses the Alpine foreland basin from the Alpine front up to the Vuache Mountain/Jura. Geological cross-section of the Salève Mountain according to Joukowsky and Favre (1913) Stop 2: THE VUACHE FAULT WALL AT LA BALME DE SALLANGY In this stop we will visit a spectacular fault mirror, i.e. a fault surface characterized by clear kinematic indicators such as striations, friction grooves, calcite steps and sigmoidal/lithons structures. The Vuache fault bounds to the SW the anticline of Mandallaz which represents 3 the southern extension of the Salève, of the same axial direction, with respect to which it is simply offset. The former exploitation of the quarry of Petite Balme (illegal and unauthorized or at least uncontrolled and unregulated) has cleared in previous years this superb looking mirror. Thus, without the exploitation of this career, this site would still be hidden! The anticline of Mandallaz has a very open vaulted form, which is clearly visible thanks to the natural notch, almost orthogonal to its axis. This produces from its southern end (top of La Tête) the escarpments of La- Balme-de Sillingy, whose foot forms an almost continuous cliff. The observed geometry (see map) indicated that the fault mirror belongs to a conjugate fault plane connected with ca 30 ° angle to the main fault (see the map below). Despite the high angle, this secondary fault has been interpreted as a Riedel structure assoc iated with the major detachment. On July 15, 1996 at 02:13 am, an earthquake with an estimated magnitude of 5.2 on the Richter scale shacked the region. Thus was highlighted, at the foot of the mountain of Mandallaz, one of the largest fault mirrors, of almost 2,000 m², never seen in Europe. This is certainly the most spectacular fault mirror in France. Stop 3: THE VUACHE FAULT: AN EXUMED GEOTHERMAL SYSTEM This stop offers the opportunity to examine a complex fault system known as the Vuache Fault, a NW-SE trending left-lateral transpressive regional fault separating the Geneva Basin to the NE from the Rumilly Basin to the SW. This fault, linked most likely to basement fault (Charollais et al., 1983) active since Mesozoic time, is considered active as demonstrated by the earthquake of M1: 5.3 intensity occurred in 1996, whose epicentre was located ca. 12 km to the SE. The kinematic analysis of the earthquakes suggest a detachment surface located at the base of the Mesozoic sequence, corresponding with Triassic evaporites (Baize et al., 2011). From this stop the SW-NE trending thrust faults forming the northern flank of the Salève and Montagne de Mandallaz mountains are also visible. 4 Continental Molasse Chattian Marine Molasse 3 Burdigalian Urgoni an Lmst Cross section of the Vuache mountain throughout history (A: Schardt, 1891 B: Arikan, 1964; C: Charollais et al., 2013) and geological map of the Vuache Mountain, central part (Charollais et al., 2013).

Approximate depth is shown for reference but may strongly vary from one place to another. From Chelle-Michou et al., 2017) STOP 4: THE PETROLEUM SEEPAGES IN THE MOLASSE OF DARDAGNY Walk downstream of the Roulave Stream near Dardagny (Canton of Geneva) to see outcrops of Lower Freshwater Molasse (USM; Oligocene). The USM consists of sandstones and marls deposited in a low sinuosity river and flood plain environment. These sandstone are impregnated by bitumen. Geochemical analysis have been performed on these seepages, but unfortunately few information could be extracted, as the bitumen is strongly biodegraded. However, it seems clear that they have been generated by a marine source rock, which in the area is most likely the Toarcian Posidonia shales source rock. Several galleries and small pits have been dug since the 19th century to recover the bitumen. These bituminous sandstones are already mentioned in 1770 by H.B. de Saussure. The first attempts to exploit them in the area date back to 1826; the digging of galleries in the Roulave Valley began around 1845, and phases of production and abandonment went on until 1894. During the two world wars, the exploitation was reinitiated with the digging of wells and deep galleries. Probably a total of several tens of tons of viscous bitumen was extracted. It was used to asphalt some streets in the City of Geneva, lubricate carriage wheels, caulk boats or for medical purposes (Wildi et al., 2014). Bitumen derived from Toarcian Posidonia shales have also been encountered in cores taken in the karstified upper part of the Urgonian limestones. 6 (a) Chromatogram of the oil seepages in the Roulava stream (a1), indicating high biodegradation; (b) and (c) microphotograph in fluorescencee light of the Toarcian Posidonia shales in the Geneva area.

  • On the Use of Gravity Data in Delineating Geologic Features of Interest for Geothermal Exploration in the Geneva Basin (Switzerland): Prospects and Limitations L
    Guglielmetti and Moscariello Swiss J Geosci (2021) 114:15 https://doi.org/10.1186/s00015-021-00392-8 Swiss Journal of Geosciences ORIGINAL PAPER Open Access On the use of gravity data in delineating geologic features of interest for geothermal exploration in the Geneva Basin (Switzerland): prospects and limitations L. Guglielmetti* and A. Moscariello Abstract Gravity data retrieved from the Bureau Gravimétrique International and the Gravimetric Atlas of Switzerland have been used to evaluate their applicability as a subsurface investigation tool to assess key geological features in support of the geothermal exploration in the Geneva Basin (GB). In this context, the application of an efective processing workfow able to produce reliable residual gravity anomalies was implemented as a crucial frst step to investigate whether and to what level gravity anomalies can be correlated to geologic sources of geothermal interest. This study focusses on the processing workfow applied to publicly available gravity data, including the quantifcation of the uncertainty. This was then also used for frst-order 2D forward gravity modelling. The resulting residual anomalies demonstrate the potential use of gravity investigations for geothermal exploration in sedimentary basins, and also reveal areas of signifcant, irreparable misft, which calls for the use of complementary data and 3D subsurface struc- tural knowledge. The results of such investigations will be presented in subsequent studies. 1 Introduction of medium to long term activities under the umbrella of Te deployment of renewable energy sources for both the GEothermies program (Moscariello, 2016, 2019).

Before geothermal exploration begins, it is important to investigate the ongoing seismic activity, its relationship with local tectonic features, and the large-scale kinematics of the area. Background seismicity suggest that the local tectonic structures affecting the basin may still be active. Moderate-magnitude earthquakes have been identified along the Vuache fault, a major strike-slip structure crossing the basin. In this context we deployed a dense temporary network of 20 broadband stations around and within the GGB, during ~1.5 years, and reaching a detection threshold 0.5ML. Using a new coherence-based detector (LASSIE), we detected and located 158 events in our area of interest. However, only 20 events were located in the GGB, with local magnitudes ranging from 0.7 to 2.2ML.

Abstract A large, multistage program (GEothermie 2020) for developing the deep geothermal energy resources of the trans-border (Swiss- French) Greater Geneva Basin has been initiated in 2013 by the State of Geneva (Switzerland). In this framework, two PhD research projects have been initiated to study the subsurface geology of the region focus on both geothermal and hydrothermal energy prospection. The first project aims at characterizing facies distribution, petrophysical and thermal properties of the sedimentary sequence ranging from Permo-Carboniferous to Lower Cretaceous units. The second project investigates the basin structural evolution, fault-related fractures and their geometrical characteristics and properties. This information is being integrated in 3D geological models at both regional and local scale, derived from 2D seismic lines and well data. Detailed rock typing description from petrophysical measurements and laboratory analysis of core and outcrop samples (facies and micro-facies description; geochemical, petrophysical and thermal properties) are being carried out in order to assess the lateral variations of [...] Reference CLERC, Nicolas, et al.

  • Monitoring Seismotectonic Activity in the Surroundings of the Vuache Fault
    Monitoring seismotectonic activity in the surroundings of the Vuache fault Dr. N. Houlié 1 and Dr. J. Fréchet 2 1 Nicolas Houlie Geologie GmbH, Zurich, CH 2 JFrechet Consulting, Grenoble, FR Introduction The new CERN measurement facility will be more accurate than ever. Like all high-precision instrument, it will be more sensitive to its environment than its predecessor and a wider range of signals resulting from natural or human-driven processes should be considered as noise sources. For instance, the next generation of instruments deployed by CERN will be the first to be disturbed by external processes such as Swiss tectonics and the first effect of climate change on the hydrogeology systems. Fortunately, small amplitudes disturbances of various frequencies have been documented from a wide range of past activities such as seismology, geodesy and space programs. Even though processes are well known by CERN teams, external expertise will be required to characterize the external noise contribution from outside the CERN facilities in both a local and a regional context. Noise contributors New noise contributors are diverse in terms of amplitudes and of durations and periodicity: • Seismic activity (natural or in response to CERN activities or to the geothermal development) • Meteorological effect (troposphere, drying and recharge of natural water reservoirs) • Anthropic activities (trains, planes landing, roadwork, excavations, etc.) • Long-term tectonics (lithosphere deformation, long-term response to earthquakes) • Landslides We show in Figure 1 the variability of the disturbances parameters (Psimoulis et al. 2018).

  • Present-Day and Future Tectonic Underplating in the Western Swiss
    1 Published in Earth and Planerary Science Letters 173: 143-155; 1999 Present-day and future tectonic underplating in the western Swiss Alps: reconciliation of basement=wrench-faulting and de´collement folding of the Jura and Molasse basin in the Alpine foreland Jon Mosar * Geological Survey of Norway – NGU, Leiv Eirikssons vei 39, 7491 Trondheim, Norway Received 14 June 1999; revised version received 21 September 1999; accepted 22 September 1999 Abstract The western Alps form a geodynamically active mountain belt showing the typical features of an evolving orogenic wedge with its pro-wedge geometry to the NNW and its retro-wedge structures to the SSE. Renewed tectonic underplating of European continental crust occurred after the orogenic wedge underwent major dynamic disequilibrium following the break-off of the southward subducting slab of the European passive margin. The most important of these basement imbricates are the Mont-Blanc–Aiguilles Rouges and Gastern–Aar crystalline massifs, also forming the Alps’ highest mountains. The upper plate–present-day orogenic wedge of the western Alps includes the Molasse basin and the Jura fold-and-thrust belt, both decoupled from the basement over a basal de´collement surface. The overall geometry of this wedge appears to be strongly unstable according to simple wedge models. In its attempt to regain stability, out-of-sequence thrusts form in the existing basement nappes; but also new basement nappes should develop beneath the southern portion of the Molasse basin. New out-of-sequence thrusts in the cover, trigger higher than average uplift rates concentrated around the newly forming structures and are accompanied by a concentration of earthquakes.

A seismostratigraphic approach led to subdivision of a 150 m-thick pile (maximum thickness in axial part) into five units. Basal units (1 and 2) represent an imbrication of subglacial and glacio-lacustrine deposits, close to the grounding line of the glaciers’ fronts (respectively at the northern and southern terminations of the lake). The first acoustically well-stratified unit (3) developed during a fast retreat of the glaciers fronts far from the lake basin, and a progradational alluvial regime, with abundant underflows, in a lake larger than the present one.
