Summary
[edit]DescriptionMoab Fault splays (Moab Canyon, eastern Utah, USA) 6.jpg |
English: Faults cutting Pennsylvanian sedimentary rocks in Utah, USA.
Faults are fractures or fracture systems in rocks along which there has been differential displacement. Faults are produced by either extensional stress, compressional stress, or shear stress. Movement along faults is usually in the form of sudden jolts, which produces earthquakes. Just south of the southern park boundary of Arches National Park in eastern Utah, USA is the Moab Fault. It extends along Moab Canyon, roughly parallel with Rt. 191. Across the road from the park's visitor center is a nice roadcut (see above photo) with beds of the (apparently) Honaker Trail Formation (Pennsylvanian) that have been chewed up by minor splays of the Moab Fault System. Locality: roadcut on the southern side of Rt. 191, south of Arches National Park visitor center, Moab Canyon, northwest of the town of Moab, southern Grand County, eastern Utah, USA (38° 36’ 51.40” North latitude, 109° 37’ 15.03” West longitude) |
