Omagh Thrust : ウィキペディア英語版 | Omagh Thrust The Omagh Thrust Fault is a geological fault in County Tyrone. It is of one of the most important structural discontinuities in Northern Ireland〔(Department of the Environment NI )〕 and an extension of the Highland Boundary Fault which runs through Scotland.〔(Geological Society of Australia )〕 The fault occurred in the Caledonian orogeny, during a late stage of this period of mountain building. Older sequences of Dalriadan metamorphic strata were moved over younger Ordovician ones with the fault as their boundary. There is access to a view of the fault at Mountfield Quarry, County Tyrone. This has been designated an Area of Special Scientific Interest.〔 ==See also==
