The Tyin reservoir is situated (...) The stratigraphy of the area is rather complex. The eastern part of the area consists of mainly Cambrosilurian phyllite. These rocks are overthrusted by a large complex called the Jotun-Valdres Nappa Complex, consisting of Precambrian and Cambrosilurian rocks. (...) Just above this is a small zone of heterogeneous gneiss, quartzite and mica schist, followed by a large unit of META-ARKOSE and conglomerate. A new thrust zone divides the META-ARKOSE from a unit of the so-called Jotunheim Complex, consisting mainly of gneiss, gabbro, amphibolite and pyroxene-granulite. The power station area and the lower part of the pressure tunnel are located within these rocks. (…)
