There is concern in the geological community that with the development of infrastructure these rocks that contain a great deal of information will be excavated and destroyed.

geophysical data suggest deep basement faults that have been activated as thrust faults during the collisional event that obducted the Semail
Ophiolite. This has resulted in a much shallower depth to basement in the Hajar Mountains and a deeper depth to basement in the foreland basin to the west.
