Annotation:

The structural analysis of the frontal part of the eastern Achara-Trialeti fold-and-thrust belt using interpreted of seismic profile and structural cross-sections is presented here. The interpreted seismic profile reveals and structural cross-sections presence of upper and lower structural complexes. The structures mainly are represented by north- and south-vergent thrusts, north-vergent duplex and structural wedge. The upper structural complex is represented by a shallow triangle zone and the lower structural complex - by a structural wedge. The presented triangle zone belongs to the type II of the triangle zone.
