|
| 6. | Intercratonic orogenic belts are characteristic of ocean basin closure.
|
| 7. | However, interpretation of orogenic belts can be difficult.
|
| 8. | Thrust faults occur in the foreland basin which occur marginal to orogenic belts.
|
| 9. | These include intracontinental orogenic belts may also produce phonolites.
|
| 10. | Intracratonic orogenic belts occur as thrust belts and do not contain any oceanic material.
