As there is no sign of contact metamorphism in the limestones, we interpret this to be a normal fault. |
|
This basin is emphasized by normal fault scarps that face the river from its SW bank. |
|
We interpret this pattern as a Mesozoic normal fault zone whose inversion gave rise, along strike to the NW, to the south Cameros thrust. |
|
It is now commonly accepted that the dip of the steeper part of a listric normal fault is approximately 60 deg. |
|
Massive dolomite and dolomitic breccias are separated by a normal fault from the upper part of the sequence. |
|
Recent studies proposed that the Cretan detachment is a shallowly north-dipping normal fault, which formed subparallel to the subjacent subduction thrust in the Early Miocene. |
|
The current morphology of the coastal terraces suggests that oblique-slip thrust movements have recently exceeded oblique-slip normal fault movements. |
|
The area is transected by numerous faults, most of which are dextral strike-slip faults, but a NNW-trending fault just west of Arleau Brook is interpreted as a normal fault that dissects the Melanson Brook Anticline. |
|
However, a normal fault just west of Arleau Brook is proposed to explain missing stratigraphy between the Simpsons Field and Jacquet River formations. |
|
Few normal fault earthquakes were observed. |
|
This normal fault is known as Bawuran Fault. |
|
Finding the key bed in these situations may help determine whether the fault is a normal fault or a thrust fault. |
|
These rocks dip to the west within the north-trending Dark Star Corridor, which is bounded to the east by a large displacement, normal fault. |
|
This defined the geometry of a large tilted fault block closed by a major normal fault. |
|
This depressed zone lies between the bounding normal fault and rim zone, an uplifted area that surrounds the inner crater. |
|
Each block has rotated along the curved plane of a listric normal fault, so that the dip of the displaced strata is away from the valley axis. |
|
Our recent geological work shows the northwest oriented Venturina and other veins are terminated by a low angle east-west normal fault. |
|
However, normal fault, and strike-slip, types are also observed. |
|
A normal fault may therefore become a reverse fault and vice versa. |
|
Cerro Amarillo, a domal feature approximately six kilometers across, and Cerro Bola, which is truncated by a major north-south trending normal fault, rise above this surface. |
