Geology
The mountain mass is primarily made up of ultrabasic magmatic rocks and partially of Mesozoic limestones with a gentle relief. The northern and northeastern slopes are marked by glacial cirques, some of which have transformed into glacial lakes, including Liqeni i Zi and Lake Sopa, which are among the largest of their kind in the country. The area is rich in vegetation, including oak, beech, and alpine pastures. In the Bulqiza massif are found significant sources of chrome ores (Bulqizë, Batër and Thekën).[3]
