I forgot to say that the the cross-sectional diagram is in the public domain. Also:

the cross section is by Arz, modified by Commander Kean at Wikipedia/Wikimedia.

The geologic profile is by Commander Keane, based on Adapted from: CJ Kirkland, Engineering the Channel Tunnel, 1995, page 27. This is also at Wikipedia/Wikimedia.

The map is by Mortadelo2005, again at Wikipedia/Wikimedia.
