With these old sediments considerable masses oferuptive rocks in the form of sheets and laccoliths are interbedded, theseeruptives being older than the tilting of the beds. This tilting appears tohave been caused by pressure from the east, which, afJecting sediment anderuptive ahke, formed a number of asymmetrical anticlines and syn-clines, having their steeper hmbs to the west. These are traversed by anumber of north-south faults. Follomng this orogenic period came a timeof erosion to which the present contoms are mainly due.
