FOLDING AND
FAULTING
Plate tectonic
- movement of the plates results in
deformation (folding and faulting) of the
Earth’s crust.
FOLDING
- the type of Earth movement resulting from the
compression of rock because of high temperature
and pressure from the interior of Earth.
- bending, curving, crumpling, or buckling of
rocks into folds are usually visible on rock strata.
- also happens in oceans and seas
FOLDING
5 Types of Folding
A. Monocline
B. Anticline
C. Syncline
D. Overturned
E. Recumbent
A. Monocline
- a one-sided slope
connecting two
horizontal or gently
inclined strata
B. Anticline
- an upward fold on the
rock
C. Syncline
- an downward fold on
the rock
D. Overturned
- happens when one-
fold is pushed over the
other limb due to
increasing pressure.
E. Recumbent
- an extreme type of
overturned fold in
which the axial plain
acquires an almost
horizontal altitude.
FAULTING
- the type of Earth movement resulting from
cracks or fractures from the rocks.
- caused by low temperatures that make rocks
brittle.
- instead of folding, rocks break into large chuncks
FAULTING
3 Types of Faulting
A. Normal (divergent) Fault
B. Reverse (convergent) Fault
C. Transform (strike-slip) Fault

- these are named according to the type of stress that

acts on the rock.
A. Normal (divergent) Fault
- occur when rock is
being pulled apart due
to tension force.
- rock generally moves
down.
B. Reverse (convergent) Fault
- happens when rock is
being squeezed due to
compression force.
- rock generally moves
up.
B. Transform (strike-slip) Fault
- happens when rocks
slide past each other in
opposite direction.
 Can you give some advantages and
disadvantages of folding and faulting?
ROCK FORMATION
Among the three types of rocks,
sedimentary rocks are commonly called
stratified rocks. Why?
Sedimentary rocks have layered or
stratified structure.
STRATIFICATION
- A process in which sedimentary rocks are
arranged in layers due to crustal movement,
displacement of soils, and distortion of terrain.
- The layers of stratified rocks differ from one
another depending on the kind, size, and color of
their sediments.
STRATIFICATION
- The layers (strata) are formed from the
accumulation, compaction and cementation of
sediments over a period of time.
- Most fossils are found in these layers.
- Young rock layers are found at the surface and
older layers below.
