Summary[edit]

Description
English: Figure 4. Port Isabel foldbelt, northwestern Gulf of Mexico. (a) Regional depth section showing linked proximal extension and distal contraction. Shortening is accommodated in: the Perdido foldbelt above the Jurassic Louann salt; extrusion of, and translation above, allochthonous salt; and the Port Isabel foldbelt, detached on Eocene shales. 2x1 vertical exaggeration; salt is in white. Modified from Peel et al., (1995); (b) Tracing of seismic interpretation of the Port Isabel foldbelt, showing the multiple detachment levels and the associated fault-bend and fault-propagation folds. Interpretation by F. Peel. (c) Schematic cross section (not to scale) showing the relationship of the Port Isabel shale detachments (at the base of the green unit and higher) and the underlying, autochthonous Louann salt detachment.
