The Maastrichtian section within Oued Lahouar offers a unique opportunity to investigate sedimentological characteristics and depositional processes in this stratigraphic unit. This study presents a comprehensive sedimentological description of the Maastrichtian section in Oued Lahouar, focusing on lithology, sedimentary structures, and depositiona...
The analysis of the synclinal section of Jebel Sour in the High Atlas of Marrakech reveals a Liassic series characterized by fossiliferous limestones,clay and dolomites. Recurring elementary sequences, marked by erosive bases, provide important reference points. This series, composed of intercalated layers of limestone and dolomite with clayey beds...
The studied region is part of the watershed of Oued Lahouar, located in the western region of Agadir, Morocco. Oued Lahouar runs through the center of the city, creating potential flood risks. Agadir is generally characterized by a semi-arid climate and rare precipitation. The soils in this area are fragile, primarily due to the lack of rain, the i...
This study aims to determine the indicators of emersion in the Liassic deposits of the Tafilalet basin, located in the Ait Ourir region, to characterize different structures and gain a better understanding of the paleoenvironment. The Liassic series of Tafilalet exhibits a variety of geological features, including dissolution breccias, carbonate-fi...
Geothermal energy is a widely distributed resource globally. Countries situated on active tectonic zones, such as Iceland, the Philippines, and New Zealand, actively harness this energy source. However, even in less tectonically active areas, geothermal energy can be utilized with appropriate technologies. Geothermal power plants of varying capacit...
It is not paradoxical that a country like Morocco, characterized by its semi-arid climate, experiences periodic exposure to significant flood damage. This phenomenon, increasingly conspicuous over the past two decades, arises, on one hand, from population growth, economic development, and the expansion of urban, agricultural, industrial, and touris...
The Khnifiss Lagoon, situated in the southern region of Morocco, stands as a globally significant biological reserve, particularly noted for its diverse fauna. So many researchers have conducted comprehensive studies encompassing hydrological parameters, sedimentology, and currents within the lagoon. The findings from the analysis of currents revea...
The analysis of various physical and geomorphological characteristics of the watershed aims at a quantitative evaluation of its shape, slope, orientation, relief, as well as the quantity and arrangement of the hydrographic network. A thorough understanding of these aspects will lead to a better grasp of the factors responsible for variations in hyd...
The Bou Azzer mining district, located in the Anti-Atlas Mountains of Morocco, is world-renowned for its serpentinized Neoproterozoic ophiolitic complex. These complex host large deposits of CoNi-Fe arsenides and sulf-arsenides, containing significant quantities of cobalt, nickel, gold and copper. Bou Azzer's unique cobalt mineralization makes it a...
Hydrosystems worldwide, and specifically in southern Morocco (such as Souss and Draa), grapple with the repercussions of extreme weather and climate events, encompassing prolonged periods of severe drought and sporadic episodes of sudden, intense rainfall. Unfortunately, there is a notable paucity of studies addressing this pivotal issue. Consequen...
This work represents an in-depth study of the relationship between the emplacement of pegmatites in the Sidi Bou Othman region, at the heart of the Jebillet massif in Morocco, and the geodynamic model. This research is based on the results of a detailed analysis of thin sections derived from samples collected at the study site. The Jebillet massif,...
The study of the Maastrichtian epoch within the Agadir basin, situated in the Western High Atlas region of Morocco, has brought to light an abundance of distinct trace fossils scattered throughout the investigated section. This research places a particular emphasis on the identification of trace fossils, also known as ichnofacies-an important conce...
Drought, a devastating meteorological phenomenon, has a significant impact on various regions of the globe, including Morocco. The phenomenon is characterized by a significant drop in precipitation, with adverse consequences for water resources, particularly groundwater.In Morocco, drought represents a major challenge, severely affecting the countr...
Cobalt, a magnetic transition metal, plays a pivotal role in various industrial sectors, including the production of alloys, batteries, and catalysts. Its economic significance is underscored by its increasing utilization in emerging technologies, particularly in electric vehicles and electronic devices. The formation of cobalt is intricately tied...
The Upper Jurassic of the Moroccan margin, particularly in the Agadir Essaouira basin and specifically in its western part towards the Atlantic Ocean, is characterized by geological diversity. It is studied from a paleo-ichnological perspective to analyze the various ichnofacies most commonly found, such as Thalassinoides, Planolites, Arénicolites,...
Laayoune-Sakia El Hamra, a pivotal point in southern Morocco, grapples with escalating water demand amid demographic pressures and scarce water points, posing a significant challenge to resource management. Groundwater, with salinity levels from 2g/l to 9 g/l, serves as the sole supply source in the absence of perennial watercourses. The Foum El Ou...
Groundwater plays a crucial role in the Moroccan context, representing a vital resource for the country's socioeconomic development. However, the growing demand for water for domestic, agricultural, recreational and industrial needs is exposing this resource to significant pressures, making it particularly vulnerable, especially in the face of drou...
L’étude a porté sur mise en évidence de l’impact essentiel du processus Qa/Qc, sur le calcul des ressources minérales du gisement de Tazalaght Sud. Pour y arriver, la procédure a inclut un protocole de contrôle analytique (Blanc, Standards et duplicatas) des analyses de 15930 échantillons de sondages du gisement du cuivre de Tazalaght. Les cartes d...
