ABSTRACT
fault zones of East Texas. The fault patterns associated
with these zones are generally compatible with a model whereby the Gulf opened along a
northwest-trending spreading center. This implies divergent strike-slip movement on the
Mexia fault zone and simple rifting on the Talco fault
zone. Late Jurassic-Eocene movement
on the zones is most likely due to mobilization and movement of the Jurassic-age Louann
Salt.
