Russian term

Мезоблок

Russian to English Science Geology From a Geomorphological Report (?)
I am not sure what this type of document is called exactly, but it tells about geomorphological conditions and technogenics in certain parts of Russia. The content is pretty general, except I can't find an English equivalent for Мезоблок. Would it simply be meso or mezo block?

Example sentence:

"В пределах этого мегаблока выделяются более мелкие структуры – МЕЗОБЛОКИ и разделяющие их структурные зоны, которые пересекает трасса... 290-315 км – Нелидовский МЕЗОБЛОК"

Thanks in advance for any help!

The older Mesozoic blocks are composed of a lower structural unit, comprising volcano-sedimentary lithologies

The bounding faults of the "Mesozoic" blocks follow the same trends in part, but the fault orientations have a wider scatter and an additional NW-SE trending

High-energy facies within each block tend to have greater porosity and are located along the western margins of the rotated Mesozoic blocks.

Thanks!
disagree Vasu Valluri : The context talks of megablocks subsequently we should infer that here the author is talking about block sizes and not ages. Mesozoic indicates age and is not applicable in this context.

Example sentence:

The Central System (CS) or Spanish Central System forms part of two of the five morphotectonic mesoblocks that make up the Intermediate macroblock (number 6) of the Iberian plate.

Three main categories of the relief were established: territorial units (1 megablock, 2 macroblocks, 14 mesoblocks, 209 blocks, 401 microblocks, and 527 nanoblocks), morphostructural alignments (4 first-, 1 second-, 12 third-, and 30 fourth-rank)...
