Abstract

Structural deformation of the island of Hvar allows three tangential tectonic phases to be determined: the Laramian (F I), the Pyrenean (F II) and the Neotectonic phase (F III). Preserved relics of Laramian and Pyrenean folds with intact structural elements, indicates that the Neotectonic orientation of structures (E-W) is a consequence of refolding of the older structural fabric, rather than horizontal rotation.
