| Fig. 9.36a-c: Schematic illustration of development of faults in granitic rocks of the Sierra Nevada (Segall and Pollard, 1983; Martel et al., 1988). a) Joints propagate to form one set of opening fractures. b) Some joints slip to form left-lateral faults with wing cracks near tips linking to neighboring faults. c) Adjacent left-lateral faults form boundaries of fault zones. | ||||
