Bedding Fault

In a bedding fault the plane of movement is the bedding plane of the strata.

Bedding fault. The extent of that around the Thresher fault zone. These fault structures along with the dominant bedding plane relative to the mine layout greatly influence the location of squeezing ground conditions and the rate of deformation. Stage mining design options within large scale structural geological adverse bedding strength anisotropy and fault and hydrogeological controls.

Dip direction is always at a right angle to the strike. Because the bed dips vertically has a 90 dip it dips equally in either direction at right angles to strike so the dip line is shown extending in both directions. Faults range in length from a few centimetres to many hundreds of kilometres and displacement likewise may range from less than a centimetre to several hundred kilometres along the.

The displacement along a fault may be less than a meter several hundred. Trend is the same as strike only if the. Area will be designated No Entry.

Strike in geology direction of the line formed by the intersection of a fault bed or other planar feature and a horizontal planeStrike indicates the attitude or position of linear structural features such as faults beds joints and folds. Strike faults exhibit a repetition of strata or a gap in cross section according to the manner in which the dip of the. A fault whose fault surface is parallel to the bedding plane of the constituent rocks.

Small thrust faults sometimes develop upward into overlying shales where the fault ramps upward into the roof Molinda 2003. Pattern of strikes and. The orebody is hosted within a doubly-plunging syncline bounded by the low-permeability shale with predominant east-west striking faults confining the mineralisation to within the central part of the syncline.
