A geological formation in Switzerland that is one of the most striking examples of thrust fault tectonics, showing Permian volcanic conglomerates pushed over Cretaceous limestone during Alpine formation.
"One of the most striking examples of plates of a thrust (reverse) fault, created by vulcanic conglomorates (rubble rock basically) from the Permian (300-250 million years ago) getting pushed on and over Cretaceous limestone (150-100 Ma) during the creation of the Alps.
