Geologic structures are formed as a result of rocks being strained by various stresses. Here we explore the stress and strain types, and then look at what brittle strain does in making faults, and how to distinguish them.
@@CVshorey Okay thanks! I'm planning a spring break trip to Zion National Park for my university's Geology club and I wanted to know how accessable the outcrop is as a potential stop on the drive over.
Ariel Espindola my apologies, the thrust west of Las Vegas is the Keystone fault. I misspoke in that clip. Sevier fault is in Utah. keckgeology.org/2017/12/southern-utah/
