Question 1

A region is characterized by numerous anticlines and synclines. There are also several faults present that appear to have formed at the same time as the folding. Without looking at any details, what type of faults would be most likely? Why?

Question 2

The Laramide Rockies formed between about 85-50 million years ago. A popular theory is this event was caused by "flat slab subduction" of over-thickened oceanic crust. From your understanding of mountain building processes in this part of the course, evaluate the following question(s).


Was this mountain building process an Andean type mountain building event, a collisional event, or both; and what might have been subducted to produce the over-thickened oceanic crust that drove the orogeny?
