The Paunglaung Fault is a top-to-the-east thrust, which folds Aptian limestone in its footwall. |
In the footwall, there is density increase and porosity reduction of the argillaceous matrix approaching the fault. |
Figure 6 shows outcrop Al as a representative example of the shelf to shoreface successions on the footwall of the Jalan Tutong Fault. |
As a result, Triassic rocks in the hanging wall thrust onto Upper Cretaceous rocks in the footwall. |
The carbonates in the footwall are strongly foliated and sheared parallel to the thrust. |
They contain kilometre-scale blocks of igneous basement rocks, plucked by the rising diapir from the footwall of the fault. |
