Geology of the coast-region from Lofoten to Loppa, with special emphasis of faults, joints and related structures
Abstract
Lineament patterns in the coast-region from Lofoten to Loppa, is investigated. Exposure of fault-rocks show a variety of modes of deformation from ductile to brittle.Relative movements are indicated in some places, showing small strike-slip components and large vertical components. The area represents an elevated substratum for post-Caledonian basin-sediments.
