Lithostratigraphic column between Nevesinje and Ljubinje including highlights of the karst area characteristics (Southeastern Bosnia & Herzegovina)

The area between Nevesinje and Ljubinje in Eastern Herzegovina is a part the Dinaric massif, where Mesozoic carbonated platform is almost completely preserved. There are also Palaeogene sediments in the area structure, but they are considerably less preserved.However, they are an extraordinary indic...

description The area between Nevesinje and Ljubinje in Eastern Herzegovina is a part the Dinaric massif, where Mesozoic carbonated platform is almost completely preserved. There are also Palaeogene sediments in the area structure, but they are considerably less preserved.However, they are an extraordinary indicator of the more important structures within and a solid base for reconstruction of tectonic occurrences during Neogene and Quaternary.The purpose of this paper is to provide more information on lithofacies and tectonic terrain structures, including particular karst characteristics. Causes for occurrence and possible development of karst process are issues that are also pointed out (considering thethickness of the carbonated sediments), as well as the directions and development volume of the process.
