Fig. 4From: Geology along the Bedretto tunnel: kinematic and geochronological constraints on the evolution of the Gotthard Massif (Central Alps)Lower hemisphere equal area projections. Data of present study, Lützenkirchen and Loew (2011), and Schneider (1985) are shown. Legend in lower part of figure applies to both sub-figures. The sectors along the Bedretto tunnel, which correspond to the two sub-figures are indicated in Fig. 3b. Stereonet 10.4.2 was used to create plots (Cardozo and Allmendinger, 2013), contour lines according to Kamb method (Kamb, 1959). a Structural data of Tremola and Prato series: poles of foliation and fault zones (\(>10\) cm wide). Note that the part of the Tremola series affected by Quaternary gravitationally driven re-orientation of the structures (‘toppling zone’ between TM 0 and 355) is not shown. b Structural data of Rotondo granite: poles of foliation, fault zones (\(>10\) cm wide), G-SZ, and QB-SZ, and linear structural elements of fault zones (defined by striations), G-SZ, and QB-SZ. Contour lines are plotted for the shear directions in shear zones (G-SZ and QB-SZ), which are defined by stretched and recrystallized biotite or the intersection between the foliation plane and the plane normal to the boudin/swell axes (BSA)Back to article page
