Figure 1: Geologic feature

Determine the relative ages in the diagram below

A1. Determine the relative ages in the diagram above. (Plummer Carlson)

From the diagram we can say the relative ages are as follows:

A2. Name the features marked A, B, C and D

A3. Describe the sequence of events that resulted in the formation of the geological features observed in the diagram

4. Rock Types

Identify the rock types in the area shown below (search online for a key code) Determine the relative ages of the rocks Name the geological structures that you are able to identify (in the case of folds, draw their axes) Describe the geological history of the area
