Fig. 7

Representative kinematic features from polished slip surfaces of the Horse Head Fault zone. All pictures are taken from dolostone and limestone outcrops. A Oblique slickenlines are exposed on two conjugate fault walls. B Dominant oblique slickenlines are overlapped by the down-dip slickenlines, as highlighted in the inset E. C Polished slip surface showing progressive curvature of the slickenside from down-dip to oblique right-lateral motion. D Down-dip normal slickenside on cataclasite (1A) are overlapped by oblique right-lateral striations (1B). F Gentle curvature of the slickenline showing right-lateral motion
