...Donald W. Hyndman; James L. Talbot; Ronald B.

...RICHARD E. CHAPMAN Abstract The fluid-pressure hypothesis of overthrust faulting is extended in terms of stratigraphically controlled clay diapirism in the upper 2 or 3 km of a young, regressive marine sedimentary sequence. Such a sequence, with thick clay loaded by coarse clastic sediments...

.... A tectonic evolution of back-arc thrust-belt type agrees, for the Balkanids, with the lack of large overthrust, ophiolite and radio-larite rock-type, eumiogeosyncline in this area. The distribution of magmatism from the Mesozoic to the Recent and the tectonic evolution of the Balkanic-Hellenic area suggest...

...Richard Lee Armstrong; Henry J. B. Dick Abstract Overthrust sheets of granitic rock have numerous features in common with overthrust sheets of ultramafic rock. Regardless of rock type, these overthrust masses are 5 to 10 km thick or more, tens of kilometers wide, and up to hundreds of kilometers...
