Abstract
âºOur work presents the first paleostress analysis of fault-slip data from the Kraishte area, SW Bulgaria. ⺠We can clearly distinguish three successive faulting events during Cenozoic extension. ⺠Middle Eocene-early Oligocene WSW-ENE extension led to the exhumation of an extensional core complex. ⺠Between 32 and 29 Ma, SW-NE-oriented syn-magmatic extension followed. ⺠The late Oligocene to the earliest Miocene was characterized by SSE-NNW transtension.
