Cenozoic pull-apart basins in the British Isles

Quinn, Martyn; Smith, Kevin. 2007 Cenozoic pull-apart basins in the British Isles. [Poster] In: Geological Society Bicentennial Conference, London, England, 10 - 12th September 2007. (Unpublished)

Abstract
Pull-apart basins filled with early Cenozoic sediments suggest that a strike-slip regime was widely developed in the British Isles during the Palaeogene. Here, new evidence of strike-slip tectonism from Northern Ireland and the southern North Sea is used to support and extend a tectonic model previously proposed to explain pull-apart basin formation in Cardigan Bay.
