Caption | Title Register of the original deposit: Clastic sediments: Alpine Flysch. Turbidity flows and slumping (single arrows) deliver sediments to the foreland basin, where they may be carried laterally along the basin axis. Coarse material (pebbly and bouldery mudstones - stipple pattern) is deposited near active fault scarps, where it is incorporated into evolving melange zones. Shearing across the melange zones (paired arrows) results in progressive boudinage and eventual disruption of the bedded flysch sequence, producing the bulk of the melange blocks and clasts and the anastomosing melange fabric. Slaty and phacoidal cleavage is interpreted to form coevally, in differing defomrational environments. |
