EMPLACEMENT OF THE DADEVILLE COMPLEX OF THE SOUTHERNMOST INNER PIEDMONT WITHIN THE 7.5 MIN. CUSSETA QUADRANGLE, CHAMBERS COUNTY, ALABAMA: CHANNEL FLOW, KLIPPE KINEMATICS, OR OROGEN PARALLEL TRANSLATION
… and Alleghanian orogenies. The Inner Piedmont of the Appalachian Mountains within Alabama contains two distinct lithologic complexes, the Dadeville Complex, and the Opelika Complex separated by the Stonewall Line. These complexes were formed during an arc-back arc fringing system …

Paleozoic and Grenvillian structures in the southern Appalachians: extended interpretation from seismic reflection data
… profiles which traverse the Blue Ridge and Inner Piedmont geologic provinces of South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia. Based on the reprocessed data, all of the major faults within the allochthonous upper crust, including the Brevard fault zone and the Hayesville fault, are interpreted …

A Potential Long-lived Upper Cretaceous Paleodrainage System In The U.s. Southwestern Georgia-southeastern Alabama Region
… Pine Mountain belt and potentially rocks of Inner Piedmont-eastern Blue Ridge terranes. Mapping along the Coastal Plain unconformity near the Lower Chattahoochee River Valley indicates the presence of one or more large paleovalleys in the Upper Cretaceous sub-Coastal Plain surface that occupy …

Preliminary seismic reflection studies of the Brevard Zone near Rosman, North Carolina
… carried out southeast of the Brevard Zone in the Inner Piedmont province of southwestern North Carolina. Two geophone spreads approximately transverse to the regional strike were located 7 km and 9.25 km southeast of the Brevard Zone. The area of the study is underlain by Henderson Gneiss. Based …

STRUCTURAL AND KINEMATIC INVESTIGATION OF THE DADEVILLE COMPLEX-BREVARD ZONE CONTACT (SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS): POLYPHASE EMPLACEMENT OF AN ALLOCHTHONOUS TERRANE ON THE LAURENTIAN MARGIN
<p>The Dadeville Complex (DC) lies in the Inner Piedmont of eastern Alabama and western Georgia. The DC formed as a volcanic island arc during the Taconic orogeny (Ordovician Period) and was accreted onto Laurentia during the Acadian orogeny (Devonian-Mississippian Periods); however, the mechanism …

Interpretation of refraction and reflection stack data over the Brevard fault zone in South Carolina
… rocks. This refractor is continuous in the Inner Piedmont with occasional vertical offsets. The continuity of the refractor diminishes across the Brevard fault zone. In the eastern Blue Ridge, the refractor is discontinuous with high angle truncations. On the composite stack section, the …
