Description :
The depth distribution of earthquakes in Belgium is studied to obtain informations about the actual rheology of the crust. The quality and the reliability of the informations are dependent of their ancientness and the earthquakes location. The seismic activity in Hainaut has been studied using the date collected during the Dour sequence in 1987 by a portable network of seismic stations and for the bigger earthquakes having occurred since 1965 the examination of the time difference between PMP and Pn phases along profiles across the French network LDG. It appears superficial with a maximal depth of 7-8 km. - (Authors).
