(a) Major Caledonian faults in Scotland and Ireland and the location of the Rosemarkie Inlier on the NW side of the Great Glen Fault Zone (GGFZ). (b) Location of the Rosemarkie Inlier (RI) and positions of Figures 2 and 3.

(c) Map showing the location and regional context of the GGFZ in mainland Scotland with respect to the Walls Boundary Fault Zone (WBFZ) in Shetland and the Møre–Trøndelag Fault Complex (MTFC) in Norway, and their relationships to the major offshore basins of the NE Atlantic rifted margin. The left-hand column in the map legend refers to the interpreted age of the rift basin formation and not the age of the sediment fills; the position of the Rosemarkie Inlier (RI) on the NW side of the GGFZ is indicated; white offshore areas on the map indicate areas where no major rift basins are present.
