Abstract

The object of the present work is the evaluation of the geophysical information for the formulation of proven hypothesis concerning the geological structure of the Kopais basin. The target of the study was the search of the nature of artificial causes responsible for the aquifer pollution within the neogene sediments or the karstified limestones cherts. 1 Introduction The KOPAIS basin is situated in the region of BEOTIA 110 km from ATHENS. It's known that the basement of the study area belongs basicaly to the zone of the Eastern Greece and only at its western part appear parts of the Parnassos-Ghiona and Beotia zones, where limestones predominate. The flysch appears in both zones. The schist - sandstone - chert formation with clayey schists
