Structural Controls of the MacFarlane Geothermal System, Humboldt County, Nevada: New Insights Based on Detailed Geologic Mapping, Shallow Temperature Surveys, and Magnetic Data
… and the travertine fissure ridges lie within a relay ramp. The relay ramp is formed between two overlapping, north-northeast-striking, west-dipping Holocene normal faults exposed in Lake Lahontan sediments. Other mapped faults near the hot spring include a north-striking, west-dipping Tertiary …

Mineral deposition in epithermal deposits formed through flash vaporization and implications for improved understanding of the Arista intermediate-sulfidation epithermal deposit in southern Mexico
… (Au-Ag-Zn-Pb-Cu) deposit was controlled by a relay ramp providing linkage between two adjacent extensional faults. The banded veins at Arista consist of quartz that formed through recrystallization of a noncrystalline precursor. The quartz hosts dendritic to massive sulfide minerals. Rare …

Structural Analysis of Ernst Tinaja Canyon Focusing on Strike-Slip Faulting and Folding, Big Bend National Park, Texas
… states the N-S canyon is part of a relay ramp, connecting two en-echelon Basin and Range normal faults. The third interpretation is a combination of the first and second interpretations, and theories that a sinistral strike-slip fault was created during the Laramide Orogeny, Basin …

The architecture, growth and tectono-stratigraphic significance of rift-oblique lineaments on the NE Atlantic Margin
… the rotation of normal fault orientations, major relay ramp formation and rift perpendicular normal oblique faulting observed, elements that are not present in most existing conceptual models of accommodation zones. The results also imply that transfer zones may be an integral part of a larger …
