An analytical review of recent papers on the themes “Fluidolites”, “Clay diapirism”, “Clay injection and extrusion” is offered. These phenomena correspond fundamentally to fluid displacement (water, gas, clay and organic matter), whereas massive sedimentary uplift corresponds to large vertical displacement of stratified solid levels but the deeper cause of the latter could partly be the intrusion of mud plugs. The dynamic phenomena controlled by the development of overpressure at depth, contribu
