Samuele Papeschi has contributed another Friday fold for our delectation:
He describes this outcrop as:
East-verging folds in a dextral shear zone at Neves Glacier, South-Tyrol, Italy.
Thanks for sharing, Samuele!
If anyone else has a Friday fold to share, please get in touch!
Happy Friday to all. Enjoy your weekend.
