Stereonets (equal-angle, lower-hemisphere projection) showing the DOM fault slip data (DF) from Verzi. Arrows indicate the trend and plunge of the striae. A–E Stereonets showing the main sets of faults (DF1, DF2, DF3, DF4, DF5), with strike, dip, striae trend and plunge and the standard deviations. Slip can be normal (N), reverse (R), right-lateral (RL) or left-lateral (LL). Most sets represent F left-lateral faults, one set represents NE-SW right-lateral faults and one consists in E-W normal faults. F Stereonet showing the P- and T- axes of all the measured faults. Grey and white areas represent the extensional and the compressional domains, respectively. The blue square represents the direction of the first principal strain axis (1, maximum shortening), the red square the third principal strain axis (3) and the yellow square the direction of the intermediate strain axis (2)
