The fault is younger than the lower rocks but older those above it.
Explanation:
A fault found that cuts through lower rock layers but not those above it suggests that the fault is younger than the lower rock but older than those above it.
This interpretation is based on the principle of cross-cutting which states that "an intrusion or fault is younger than the rocks they cut through".
- In essence, an intrusion or fault cannot cut through a rock sequence unless it is already in place.
- This is why the fault that cuts through the rock layers is younger than the rock layers.
- But since it did not pass through the layers above, it is older than it.
