Patterns to ores in layered rocks
Economic Geology, 1961Takes exception to a recently published interpretation of the Basal Reef in the Orange Free State gold field (South Africa) as a stream deposit, pointing out that these and adjacent beds of the upper Witwatersrand sequence are all of blanket type and exhibit features characteristic of the basal conglomerates of a transgressing sea.

Significance of Layer-Parallel Slip During Folding of Layered Sedimentary Rocks
Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1974The Greenport Center syncline is an asymmetric fold with a half wave length of about 40 m developed in the Devonian Becraft and Alsen Limestones on Becraft Mountain, New York. Twinning strains have been measured in 19 samples distributed so as to sample all of the structurally significant regions of the fold.

Glacial Erosion in Tilted Rock Layers
The Journal of Geology, 1955Isle Royale in Lake Superior and the Rove area of northeastern Minnesota have valley and ridge topographies controlled by bands of massive, poorly jointed rock, alternating with highly jointed rock units. The ridges are asymmetrical in cross section, with gentle dip slopes on one side and precipitous antidip slopes on the other.

Strain localization mechanisms in deep-seated layered rocks
Geologische Rundschau, 1997More than 160 shear zones of the Norwegian Caledonides and Italian Southern Alps, formed under high-temperature or high-pressure conditions, are analysed with respect to mechanisms of strain localization. In metabasic rocks with a pre-existing (magmatic) layering strain localizes preferentially in mafic layers, although experiments in monomineralic ...

Textural Equilibrium in Layered Igneous Rocks
1987Rocks of many layered intrusions, adcumulate rocks in particular, are in local textural equilibrium; the shape and contiguity of grains are controlled by surface energies. Existing cumulus theory takes no account of the effects of surface energy in determining the textures which form in layered intrusions.
