What is Deformation Structures in Barra Velha Formation about?
The document describes deformational structures found in the lower Barra Velha formation in the Atapu oil field in the Santos Basin, Brazil. Soft-sediment deformation structures like convolute folds, loop bedding, and faults indicate seismic activity during deposition. Brittle fractures and faults record tectonic deformation after lithification. The structures provide insights into the depositional environment and basin evolution.
