| Abstract/Notes | AbstractThe folds and many of the faults in the Keuper Marls of the Aust-Beachley District are claimed to be compaction phenomena. The distribution of almost vertical sheets of alabaster in the Keuper Marls is attributed to infilling of contraction cracks. The palaeontology of the Carboniferous rocks, particularly of the seldom-visited islands of the Severn, is used to determine the structure. Several post-Triassic faults of tectonic origin have been mapped and others predicted; the age of the faulting is unknown. |
