The presumption on the Celje fault being the eastern prolongation of Sava fault was confirmed. Therefrom arises the hypothesis that the Oligocene beds in the Radovljica basin in which andesitic tuff occure are a dislocated part of the are Oligocene marine clay and the corresponding tuff from the Celje basin. On this basis the displacement of 65-70 km along Sava fault was estirmated. The Sava fault is the southernmost fault of the Periadriatic lineament zone in the wider sense.
