...Mark G. Steltenpohl; Steven A. Goldberg; Thomas B. Hanley; Michael J. Kunk Abstract The Goat Rock and associated Bartletts Ferry fault zones, which mark the eastern margin of the Pine Mountain Grenville basement massif, are controversial due to the suggestion that they are rare exposed segments...

... as Carboniferous, indicating later (Alleghanian?) transport of the allochthon. Phyllonites in the Goat Rock–Bartlett Ferry fault zone are dated at c . 380±20Ma. One or more later events (Hercynian?) occur in the brittle realm. The Brevard Fault probably served as the root zone for early-to mid-Palaeozoic thrusts...

... fish from a Bartletts Ferry fault zone phyllonite have a plateau age of 283 Ma. The 40 Ar/ 39 Ar results combined with other geologic data indicate that (1) a large part of the southern and Inner Piedmonts of Alabama and southwest Georgia experienced a late Paleozoic amphibolite-facies thermal...

...Mark G. Steltenpohl Abstract Subhorizontal shear sense along subvertical mylonite zones marking the southeast and northwest flanks of the Pine Mountain belt in Alabama, i.e., the Towaliga, Bartletts Ferry, and Goat Rock fault zones, has been deduced from S-C composite planar fabrics, extensional...

... position. U-Pb isotopic dating has demonstrated that the Uchee contains 640–620 Ma zircons, indicating an exotic peri-Gondwanan ( Hibbard et al., 2002 , 2007 ) or Gondwanaland origin ( Steltenpohl et al., 2006 , 2008 ; Mueller et al., 2010 ), and the Bartletts Ferry–Goat Rock fault zone here...

It is bounded on the northwest by fundamental southern Appalachian mylonite zones. The Bartletts Ferry, Goat Rock, and Box Ankle fault zones have juxtaposed the Uchee...

... deformation along the Towaliga fault; Babaie et al., 1991 ). In this interpretation, the Bartletts Ferry and Goat Rock faults represent remnants of the décollement, which had been lifted up and eroded from above the window (Fig. 1B) . Alternatively, Hooper and Hatcher (1988) (Fig. 2B) indicated...

... faults. In this area, three-dimensional modeling of the oblique faults and a limited set of slickensided minor faults ( Paylor and Yin, 1993 ) indicate sinistral oblique-slip in the east-west–trending, high-angle north Owl Creek fault zone. The eastern Owl Creek arch (EOCA) is an asymmetrical...

..., and a parallel syncline in the Bartlett Trough between Cuba and Jamaica. 94 Vaughan thinks that the West Indian Islands were formed in late Tertiary, probably Pliocene time, by block faulting. He states: "One of these fault-lines forms the northern boundary of the Bartlett Deep and passes between the east end...

Furthermore, they caused reactivation of the Jiangshan-Shaoxing fault (suture) zone, leading to the formation of the Mesozoic...

Because the particle motion of the Ps wave was corrected by estimating splitting parameters, the fast polarization direction, which...
