In its hanging wall, however, a drag fold syncline and a rollover anticline developed. |
The zone on the whole represents a huge anticline, or series of stratified arches. |
The result is a monoclinal rollover anticline, its tightness increasing progressively with continued fault displacement. |
East of the Sakami fault and in continuity with the arenites, an anticline and a syncline are recognized, in an ESE direction. |
The imbricated zone becomes progressively narrower towards the east and terminates somewhere east of the Irchel anticline. |
In this locality, the top 20 m of the Asmari Limestone exhibits palaeo-weathering along joints suggesting subaerial exposure of the Asmari near the crest of an anticline. |
