“…Other studies propose a consistent E-W extension direction between the rift events, implying that both sets of faults, which have different strikes, developed in response to the same overall regional stress regime (e.g. Roberts et al, 1990Roberts et al, , 1993Stewart et al, 1992;Bartholomew et al, 1993;Brun & Tron, 1993). We suggest that the NW-SEstriking, Late Jurassic-to-Early Cretaceous fault population observed in this study is unlikely to have formed in response to NW-SE extension because they appear to be dip-slip rather than strike-slip structures, which would be a kinematic requirement if they formed in response to NW-SE extension.…”

“…Ziegler, 1990); it is these lineaments that acted as zones of crustal weakness, which imposed geometric constraints on both the evolution of the subsequent Mesozoic rift system and the locus of Cenozoic thermally driven subsidence (e.g. Glennie, 1987;Ziegler, 1990;Stewart et al, 1992;Bartholomew et al, 1993).…”

“…However, seismic sections in many such basins (e.g. Balkwill and Legall 1989;Stewart et al 1992;Penge et al 1993;Fig. 1) show no convincing correlation in terms of fault spacing, location, and throw between basement and sediment overburden, except for basin-bounding faults where salt has been depleted above at least one of the fault blocks.…”
