Lingaku- reverse fault (geology)
- compression fault, where one block pushes over the other at dip of less than 45 degrees
Generated definitions (experimental)
- reverse fault (geology)
- compression fault
This term refers to a type of geological fault where the rock above the fault plane moves upward in relation to the rock below it, typically due to compressional forces that push the rocks together.
The reverse fault in this area has caused frequent earthquakes.
This meaning specifically describes the nature of the fault as caused by compressive stress, where one block of rock is pushed over another, typically at a low angle.
During this geological survey, they detected a compression fault.
The formation of compression faults may be related to crustal movements.
