ΝΕΟΤΕΚΤΟΝΙΚΗ ΕΞΕΛΙΞΗ ΤΗΣ ΛΕΚΑΝΗΣ ΦΛΩΡΙΝΑΣ-ΒΕΓΟΡΙΤΙΔΑΣ-ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΔΑΣ (Δ. ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΑ)

NEOTECTONIC ANALYSIS OF NEOGENE AND QUATERNARY FAULTS IN THE FLORINA- VEGORITIS-PTOLEMAIS BASIN OF NW MACEDONIA (GREECE) LEADS TO THE CONCLUSION THAT TWO EXTENSIONAL PHASES CAN BE DISTINGUISHED. THE FIRST ONE, WITH A NNE-SSW STRESS DIRECTION, TOOK PLACE DURING LATE MIOCENE- PLIOCENE TIMES AND WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE INITIAL CREATION OF THE MAIN GRABEN SYSTEM OF THE FLORINA-VEGORITIS-PTOLEMAIS-KOZANI BASIN WHICH DEVELOPED WITH NORMAL FAULTS STRIKING NW-SE. THE SECONDPHASE, WITH A NW-SE DIRECTION, TOOK PLACE IN THE QUATERNARY AND WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RECENT SUBBASINS AND RIDGES WHICH DEVELOPED ALONG NORMAL FAULTS STRIKING NE-SW. THE PLIO-QUATERNARY TENSIONAL STRESS-PATTERN OBTAINED FROM THE QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE FAULTS IS CORRELATED WITH THE RESULTS OF PREVIOUS NEOTECTONIC STUDIES IN THE GREATER AEGEAN AREA.
