Field photos are all from the north bank of the Missisquoi River in the gorge at Highgate Center; see text for discussion. (A) The sedimentary breccia identified as “fault breccia” by Schuchert (1937). Pocketknife is 9 cm long. (B) Large arrow indicates contact between the lowest beds of the Highgate Formation (above) and the uppermost sandstone bed of the Gorge Formation (below) (loc. D, Fig. 7). Small arrow points to 15 cm tall notebook. (C) Minor, locally impersistent thrust fault at contact between Highgate (HG) and Morses Line (ML) formations. Arrow A points to calcite slickenfiber vein, ∼1 cm thick. Arrow B points to dime for scale, only partially visible. Large bi-directional arrow indicates cleavage orientation. (D) Minor thrust faults and en echelon fractures in Morses Line Formation. A arrows point to deformed fault, slip surface parallels ground surface in photo. B arrows indicate relatively undeformed planar thrust that cuts oblique to ground surface. Both faults are surrounded by extension fractures (C arrows). Pocketknife is 9 cm long. (E) Highgate Falls thrust exposed in the Missisquoi River Gorge. Geologist (A.S.) points to slip surface. Upper block has moved to the west (left in photo). Photo courtesy of Marjorie Gale.

HSS, Highgate Springs slice; LL, Logan’s Line. Locations a, a′, b, c, and folds F1, F2, F3 are referred to in the text. (b) Simplified version of (a), showing the equivalent names generally used for the thrust faults in northwestern Vermont. (c) Simplified geologic cross-section (AA′ on Fig. 4a). 1, Stanbridge thrust sheet; 2, Philipsburg slice; 3, Highgate Springs slice; 4, undifferentiated flysch units; 5, platform and undifferentiated flysch units. Sections 1 and 2 belong to the allochthonous domain, 3 and 4 to the parautochthonous domain, and 5 to the autochthonous domain.

In the fracturing process, transporting proppant to fractures in the formation without the proppant settling in the pipe is crucial to its success. It is important to understand...
