Summary Author: Dave Lynch. A fault is a crack in a rock along which slippage has occurred. If thereâs no movement, the crack is called a joint. Most faults are small, even microscopic. Only the large ones get names, like the San Andreas Fault. The upper picture shows a small fault in fine-grained basaltic rock that was intruded by molten quartz.
BROKEN ROCKS. Joint: A break in a rock (crack) in which there is no relative movement of either side across the break. Fault: A break in the Earth in which the rocks on either side of the break have been displaced (vertically and/or horizontally) relative to each other (see pictures below).Strike-Slip fault: Movement of the Foot Wall and the Hanging Wall blocks is parallel to the strike of the fault plane. These faults form from.he difficulty is that it requires that the student think in 3-D -- which is a difficult skill to learn. However, there is hope! Knowing a few simple rules (and a lot of terminology) can allow even the beginning geologist to handle some rather complex structural problems.
