These investigations included new surface geological mapping, as well as several seismic reflection surveys, accompanied by a detailed study of two continental units: the Miocene Hazeva and the Pliocene-Pleistocene Arava formations. These investigations led to the identification of several new structural features within this segment of the rift, which is characterized by a series of elongated en-echelon tectonic basins. The depths of these basins, which are filled with clastic sediments, vary from several hundred meters to a few kilometers.
