Asset Overview
Detailed view of western end of [beach section](https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/ovens-anticline-beach-section-bd35dca9e057420b812d068afb5d635c) which is parallel to a northeast-trending anticline. The hinge zone of the anticline at this site displays many interesting features including saddle-reef quartz veins, bedding-parallel flexural-slip shear planes, extensional fractures (filled with quartz vein) in the outer arc of competent sand beds, and hinges thrusts among other features. See [Horne and Culshaw, 2001, Journal of Structural Geology](https://doi.org/10.1016/S0191-8141(01)00017-7).
The rocks part of the Cambrian-Ordovician Cunard Formation of the Meguma Supergroup. The folding, faulting, vein formation, and gold mineralization is likely related to progressive deformation and metamorphism during the Late Devonian Acadian Orogeny.
