Describe the folding and faults shown on the geological map, including their type, orientation, and relationship to rock units and other structures.

Here's a description of the folding and faults on the map:

• Folding:

  • A prominent plunging fold is visible in the central-southern part of the map, indicated by the arrow 'P'.
  • The fold axis plunges towards the east.
  • Based on the rock sequence (Dolomite, Mudstone (M), Limestone (L), Shale (S)) with older rocks in the core, this is interpreted as a plunging anticline.
  • The fold affects the Shale, Limestone, Mudstone, and Dolomite units.

• Faults:

  • Fault A is a high-angle fault located on the eastern side of the map, trending roughly north-south. It offsets various rock units, including Conglomerate, Tuff, Quartzite, Sandstone, and Mudstone, as well as the contour lines.
  • Fault B is another high-angle fault on the western side, also trending approximately north-south. It displaces the Mudstone, Limestone, and Dolomite units.
  • A dyke has intruded along the plane of Fault B, indicating a zone of weakness that allowed magma to ascend.
