Fig. 9From: Brittle faulting in the Rawil depression: field observations from the Rezli fault zones, Helvetic nappes, Western SwitzerlandField photographs from the eastern part of the RFZ2 above the Rezli glacier lake. The locations of the photographs are indicated on Figs. 3 and 6. a Conjugate brittle normal faults displace a layer rich in phosphate nodules in the Garschella Fm. Width of view ~10 m. b Tectonic lens of Seewen limestone adjacent to the main fault plane. Many anastomosing shear zones developed in the Seewen marls. Hammer for scale. c Angular blocks of Klimsenhorn Fm incorporated into the fault zone. Hammer for scale. d Massive, up to 1 m wide calcite veins in the Wildstrubel Fm. Hammer for scale. e Main fault plane associated with coarse angular breccia in the Wildstrubel Fm. Width of view ~10 m. f Close-up from e. Breccia of angular to rounded clasts of Wildstrubel Fm cemented by blocky, white calcite. Hammer for scaleBack to article page
