Chenaillet geotraverse - an ancient continent-ocean transition
Part of The Shear Zone Channel. Join Rob on a field walk across a classic section in the French Alps, above the ski-resort of Montgenevre. The section, a geo-trail in the Geoparc des Alpes Cottiennes, is justly famous for revealing in outcrop examples of oceanic detachment faults, once sea-floor exposed mantle, stunning pillow basalts.... and much more besides! If this pricks your curiosity, why not also watch the videos on this channel on "Interpreting a rifted continental margin" and "Hyperextension ". #Alps #geopark #tectonic. #montgenevre
