In the map given below, the triassic sandstone mudstones are located in the ceiling block of the thrust fault.The base block consists of Miocene aged marine limestones. On this map; a)Thrust fault,allochthone,autochthonous,rupture fault,clip and tectonic windows specify. b)In addition to those drawn on the map, draw structures expected to occur in the allochthonium and autochthonium during the overlay period using standard symbols. c)How can we predict which direction the allochthon is moving, and what is the minimum slip of this thrust fault?
