Figure F54. A. Example of conjugate planar normal faults moderately inclined at 55º and showing a true dip-slip displacement of about 3 cm (Sample 180-1109D-2R-2, 20-65 cm [360.6 mbsf]). B. Sketch of same core section. F = strike and dip of fault (core reference frame). C. Reconstruction of the orientation of the vertical maximum stress (1) and horizontal minimum stress (3) from the geometry of the fractures.
