Science - Geology / general
English term or phrase: geo-medium
Hi all,

I am translating a geological documentation and came across this term but can't find a French equivalent anywhere...

The sentence is

Paleo-reconstruction or Relief Plasticity ascertains ways of migration and accumulation of the mineral matter/geo-medium as well as areas of generation of minerals and hydrocarbons, on local, regional and global levels.

La paléo-reconstruction ou plasticité du relief détermine les moyens de la migration et accumulation des matières minérales / ???? ainsi que des zones de production de minéraux et d'hydrocarbures, aux niveaux local, régional et mondial.
