For the determination of the exact locations of drilling sites as well as for drilling geometry planning, we have carried out a series of active seismic experiments to image the subsurface at high resolution. The two drilling sites of project DIVE in Ossola Valley, one near Ornavasso and the other in Megolo di Mezzo, in the central part of the Ivrea-Verbano zone have been surveyed with site-specific velocity models and a seismic data processing chain. The findings have been interpreted in relation with the outcropping structures. These suggest a reasonable continuity from the surface. They also guide the planned borehole orientations: near-vertical at DT-1B (Ornavasso) into the tightly folded Massone Antiform and at 15-20° from the vertical in Megolo across a flank of the broad Proman Anticline. The seismic surveys indicate that the sedimentary overburden is up to 50 m deep at the specific drill sites and can be minimized by relocating the proposed locations. The seismic surveys also indicate that the center of the Ossola Valley contains about 550 m of sedimentary infill, defining the interface of bedrock and Quaternary glacial sediments at about 300 m below sea level. © 2024 Andrew Greenwood et al.

The objective of this study is to petrophysically and structurally characterize the rock mass and constrain factors influencing the seismic velocity in the lower continental crust. A comprehensive data set, comprising core, well log and vertical seismic profiling data, was collected. The structural analysis indicates that the axial plane of the intersected tightly folded antiform is slightly tilted at the borehole location and thus the borehole intersects the hinge zone at the top and its limb in the lower part of 5071_1_B. Numerous open natural fractures with variable dips and two dominant dip azimuthal orientations are identified along the borehole, which affect the electrical and acoustic properties. The velocities at the core, well log and seismic scale are consistent but lower than intrinsic seismic velocities of the lower continental crust, since they are not only affected by fractures but also by micro cracks at the 5071_1_B in situ conditions. A systematic lithology correlation is not evident for these properties. However, a cluster analysis of gamma ray and magnetic susceptibility logs shows an excellent agreement with the logged core lithologies in the presence of remarkable spatial variability. Furthermore, the main lithologies are grouped into three distinct clusters, suggesting two types of kinzigites with distinct magnetic and radiogenic properties.

Weber Charlotte M. Krawczyk article Liu2021 A high-resolution seismic reflection survey has been conducted across the Insubric Line from the Sesia Zone into the Ivrea-Verbano Zone (IVZ), where a remarkably complete cross-section of lower continental crust is exposed. The survey was carried out in preparation for the DIVE (Drilling the Ivrea-Verbano zonE) project, which was recently approved by the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP). DIVE aims to gain new insights into the characteristics of the lower continental crust through targeted drilling, sampling, and borehole logging. A key borehole is planned near the Insubric Line at Balmuccia, where the deepest parts of the lower continental crust are exposed. As such, the primary objective of this seismic survey was to explore whether the sub-vertical structures prevailing at the surface can be expected to continue at depth or whether there are any indications for major flattening or fault-related offsets. Correspondingly, the acquisition and processing of the seismic reflection data were geared towards revealing weak backscattered events from local heterogeneities associated with the prevailing sub-vertical structural grain. The migrated sections, contain coherent backscattered events to a depth of ~1 km, which form numerous short lineaments that seem to align sub-vertically. To substantiate this observation, we have generated synthetic seismic reflection surveys for canonical models of sub-vertical structures associated with Gaussian- and binary-distributed heterogeneities. Both the observed and synthetic seismic data were then subjected to energy-based attribute analysis as well as geostatistical estimations of the structural aspect ratios and the associated dips. The results of these quantitative interpretation approaches are indicative of the overall consistency between the synthetic and the observed seismic data and, hence, support the original qualitative interpretation of the latter in that the sub-vertical structural grain evident at the surface seems to prevail throughout the imaged part of the upper crust. © 2021 The Authors Article 2021 English 00401951 10.1016/j.tecto.2021.229035 Tectonophysics 816 Elsevier B.V.

It is a unique target for assembling data on the deep crust and the Moho transition zone and testing several hypotheses of formation, evolution, and modification of the continental crust through space and time across the Earth. The ICDP workshop Drilling the Ivrea-Verbano zonE (DIVE), held in Baveno, Italy, from 1 to 5 May 2017, focused on the scientific objectives and the technical aspects of drilling and sampling in the Ivrea- Verbano Zone at depth. A total of 47 participants from 9 countries with a wide variety of scientific and/or drilling expertise attended the meeting. Discussion on the proposed targets sharpened the main research lines and led to working groups and the necessary technical details to compile the full drilling proposal. The participants of the workshop concluded that four drilling operations in the Val Sesia and Val d'Ossola crustal sections represent the scientifically most promising solution to achieve the major goals within DIVE to unravel the physico-chemical properties and architecture of the lower continental crust towards the crust-mantle (Moho) transition zone. © Author(s) 2017.
