Contents

This open file comprises a poster in Adobe® Reader® PDF format << OF_7242.pdf >>, the same poster in Corel Draw® v.15 << OF_7242.cdr >> which contains geophysical and digital elevation layers that can be turned on but which are not available in the PDF, and an Excel® workbook << OF_7242.xlsx >> that comprises five spreadsheets: MapUnitsTable, DykeFaultEvent_AgesStyles, ReferencesDykeFaultExtra, FaultCodesArcGIS, and Scales.

To increase speed of operation of CorelDRAW® please turn off the following transparent layers: 1_HydroTransluc+lines, 1_PsiTh+OrdTranslucent, 1_AkSubTranslucent, 3.HydroTranslucent, 3.ThelOrdPolyTransluc, 3.AmrkSubPolyTransluc. 

Solid colour versions of the gently dipping cover geological layers can be turned on instead if desired: 3.ThelOrdPolySolid (this will cover 3.AmrkSubPoly).

To view the geophysical and digital elevation layers of Figure 3 in CorelDRAW® it is necessary to turn off the solid colour geological polygon layers: 3.ThelOrdPolySolid, 3.AmrkSubPoly 3.AmerGpGeoPolyg, 3.SubAberdPoly, and 3.BsmntOCpoly. These can also be seen through the transparent layers if desired.
