Uplifted and incised fluvial terraces are preserved in footwall valleys, including those of the Ladopotamos and Vouraikos rivers. |
|
In general, basement rocks are exposed in the footwall block, whereas Caledonian nappe units are preserved in the hanging wall. |
|
They contain kilometre-scale blocks of igneous basement rocks, plucked by the rising diapir from the footwall of 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. |
|
Although greatly attenuated in shear zones, layers may still be continuous from footwall to hanging wall. |
|
The Paunglaung Fault is a top-to-the-east thrust, which folds Aptian limestone in its footwall. |
|
A smaller and lower intensity damage zone also occurs within the footwall of the thrust. |
|
In the footwall, there is density increase and porosity reduction of the argillaceous matrix approaching the fault. |
|
The former courses of the south-directed drainage became wind gaps in the immediate footwall of the South Alkyonides Fault. |
|
To the south of each of the basins 1-3, wind gaps are preserved in the footwall of the fault. |
|
At several localities a west-verging footwall syncline has developed as a consequence of westward transport on the overlying thrust sheet. |
|
As much as 1.3 km of sediment were eroded on the footwall blocks of normal faults at that time. |
|
The carbonates in the footwall are strongly foliated and sheared parallel to the thrust. |
|
As a result, Triassic rocks in the hanging wall thrust onto Upper Cretaceous rocks in the footwall. |
|
Corroded danburite up to 8 cm in length was abundant around footwall portions of the pocket. |
|
The hole intersected Pipe and strong chlorite alteration in the footwall stratigraphy to the Key Tuffite, which was itself missing. |
|
Second, a change in orientation and polarity of the stretching lineation and shear bands is observed in the footwall towards the Nesna shear zone. |
|
The new owners gave an extended lease of life to the mine by extracting ore from the footwall zone of the old stopes that were thought to have been mined out. |
|
The correlation is supported by an analysis of stratal expansion, throw development, and data on the sandstone ratio of corresponding footwall and hanging-wall intervals. |
|
Several high grade areas were intersected including a new zone discovered in the volcanic rocks in the footwall to the deposit. |
|
|
Since these footwall zones lie at depths up to 1600 m, drilling from the surface is difficult. |
|
Epiclastic rocks and interbedded fine-grained felsic pyroclastic rocks are dominantly found within the stratigraphic footwall. |
|
Mineralization in the footwall zones is locally very high grade and work to correlate this new area of interest is ongoing. |
|
Overburden, internal waste and footwall material samples were checked for the presence of asbestos. |
|
It was continued to the Key Tuffite where it intersected weak mineralization and altered footwall rocks 240 metres northwest of the McLeod Zone. |
|
At 20 fathoms the winze came out into the side of a large stope which was curved so that despite being on the footwall there was a grave danger of sliding over the edge. |
|
There is some control on the footwall and hanging-wall geometry associated with the Bristol Channel Thrust but no decisive seismic control on the amount of heave across it. |
|
Graben are produced from parallel normal faults, where the displacement of the hanging wall is downward, while that of the footwall is upward. |
|
The fault surface is usually near vertical and the footwall moves either left or right or laterally with very little vertical motion. |
|
A gold-bearing, siliceous, chloritic breccia zone is exposed in the margin and footwall of the intrusion in surface outcrops. |
|
In addition to these results, a laterally continuous copper zone has been identified in the footwall to the massive sulphides that define the McLeod Zone. |
|
Normally, a porphyry sill forms the footwall to the Main Manto. |
|
By definition, the hanging wall occurs above the fault plane and the footwall occurs below the fault. |
|
The Amphi Mine is located 2.0 kilometres northwest of the center of the Canadian Malartic deposit and the porphyry intrusion formed the footwall of the mined-out ore body. |
|
Lying over the footwall is the hanging wall. |
|
The overall pit slope angles vary from 37 degrees for the south footwall to 52 degrees for the north highwall as per recommendations of an independent geotechnical review by Jane Alcott, P. Eng. |
|
Minor fault reactivation within the footwall block appears to be related to the release of bending stresses associated by the flexural uplift of the rift flank topography. |
|
The lower wall of an inclined fault is called the footwall. |
|
These holes demonstrate that the Lower Zone massive sulphide body remains thick down dip and down plunge and retains its classic high copper footwall zonation. |
