Saar–Nahe Basin
Molasse basin in southwest Germany
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Saar–Nahe Basin is a molasse basin in southwest Germany. The basin is located south of the Hunsrück mountains between the rivers Nahe and the Saar. The aggregation of sediments in the basin started in the late Carboniferous and Early Permian as part of the Variscan orogeny.
