ABSTRACT:

Masses of salt if they are of sufficient thickness and purity in the areas of tectonic activation experience plastic deformation to form the salt anticlines and diapirs. The growth rates of salt structures and mass transfer of salt per unit of time can be calculated for each of the salt-dome areas. In this paper, such calculations for the areas of recent activation such as the South-Western Hissar (Tien Shan) and the Afghan-Tajik Depression.

KEYWORDS: Salt formations; Salt-dome structures; Growth rates; Diapirs; Salt congelations
