Geological Strata Cross-Section Diagram - Earth Science Education Resource #97725 (License: Personal Use)

This line-drawn cross-section depicts a three-dimensional slice of Earth’s crust, showcasing tilted, folded, and fractured sedimentary layers. The left side shows an unconformity overlying metamorphic or igneous basement rock, while the right displays horizontal bedding and a prominent normal fault. Hachures indicate dip directions, and layer thicknesses suggest varying depositional environments.

Used in earth science textbooks, university lectures, and online geology courses to explain structural features like anticlines, synclines, faults, and stratigraphy; targets learners seeking visual reinforcement of subsurface geologic concepts.
