Öz ABSTRACT: The structural interpretation and the geological data allows us to give same consideration on the role of the longitudinal and transverse faults on the development of the structures. The object of this paper are the tectonic features and geological evolution of the north part of Albania. The study area is located in the sector between two old transverse tectonic faults of Shkoder – Peja in the north part and Vlore - Elbasan in the south. This region has very complicated geological features where combined of several facial structural zones. In the east is bounded by the Kruja (Gavrovo) tectonic zone and in the south by the Ionian tectonic zone and in the north western part by the Adriatic Sea waters. The Kruja (Gavrovo) and Ionian tectonic zones are intensively affected by orogenesis whereas Sazan (Apulia) and the Southern Adriatic Basin are partially affected. Longitudinal and transverse tectonic faults have played a very important role in facie sedimentation and in the structuring of tectonic zones and structures
