| Geologic structures are interesting because they reflect tectonic forces. Currently active forces can cause earthquakes; ancient forces reflect such major events as continental rifting, continental collisions, and strike-slip motions that would otherwise be hidden from scrutiny. Geologic structures are divided into faults, joints, and folds. |
