Question

Plot the following data on a stereonet and interpret the structures.

Cleavage (S) 263-28 NW Station Bedding (So) 029 -34 SE 284-24 NW 036-41 SE 273-31 N 050-64 SE 268-32 N 242-81 NW 240- 89 NW 034-37 SE 4 277-35 NW 279-27 NE 280 -31 NE 045 -54 SE 7 262-35 NW 032-36 SE 273-30 N 007-21 SE

Answer 1

The structural data are plotted in the stereo net, where the North and south pole marked. The bedding plane are marked as B1, B2, B3.....etc and Cleavage planes are marked as C1, C2, C3.....etc.

The structure showing the bedding planes and the cleavage planes meet at a common point which indicate a intersection lineation. These lineations are parallel to fold axis. It showing a folded stratum.
