Abstract
    A northeast trending sequence of structural deformations east on North Hinder on the Belgian continental shelf and adjacent areas seems to be the surface expression of deeper faults, cutting across the whole width of the London-Brabant Massif in the axial zone of the eastern Channel. These fractures have probably been reactivated in a wrench-fault style in tertiary times
