Question

In one paragraph explain the geologic history of the area. Include episodes of deposition, erosion and plutonium. Also include when folding and faulting occured.

Te Te Fault A Te Tm Tml Fault B Fault Fault Tmm 75 Tm Fault D Tmm 5 10 15 kilometers yStrike and dip of bedding TR-Triassic Tml Lower Miocene D- Devonian Cambrian Tm Miocene Tmm - Middle Miocene PP- Pennsylvanian Dip of fault (arrow) and plunge of fault striae (line) S Silurian Contact ToOligocene Te Eocene O Ordovician Fault, high angle Fault, low angle (hachures on upper plate) - Jurassic

Explanation / Answer

First the dipping layer with € sign then silurian and devonian layers deposited after that fault E occur then J intrusion occur after this folding occur then Pennsylvanian layer deposited after this fault B occur then J intrusion occur after this fault A happens then Te, To, and Tml occur after this fault D occur and after this the plutons i.e. Tmm and Tm occur respectively.
