“…The Windermere Supergroup (WSG) is an unconformity‐bounded, 2 to 9 km thick Neoproterozoic (740·0 to 569·9 Ma) succession of syn‐rift and post‐rift sedimentary rocks associated with the break‐up of Rodinia (McMechan, ). In outcrop, the WSG extends for over 4000 km from the Yukon–Alaska border to north‐western Mexico (Ross & Arnott, ).…”

“…Transverse faults that are coeval with deposition of the Windermere Supergroup are recognized in the SCC, such as the St Mary-Moyie fault zone near the Canada-U.S. border that demarcates the southern limit of the deep marine outcrop belt [45]. Moreover, profound facies changes within the Windermere Supergroup occur across other transverse faults in the SCC providing further evidence of syndepositional fault activity [46,47]. At a continental scale, the SW-NE faults are interpreted as initial rift and then continental margin segments with transform boundaries that separated upper and lower divergent plate boundaries (e.g., [1]).…”
