Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Folds are the unique geological structure of an orogeny belt that demonstrates the state of stress and the mechanism of ductile deformation. Here is a classic depiction of a high-amplitude "V-shaped" kink fold with axial plane cleavage. Lithological composition is shale with competent and incompetent layers. The photograph was taken along the roadside of NH-7 from Karnaprayag to Rudraprayag in the Garhwal-Srinagar region of Uttarakhand, India.
