AB - BIRPS deep seismic reflection data show the existence of a wide variety of sedimentary basins, most of which originated during Palaeozoic-Mesozoic crustal extension. Symmetrical interior- fracture basins are numerous, but more complex basins are also common and show the importance of fault reactivation and the influence of pre-existing structures on basin development. The relatively small amount of extension which has affected this region suggests that the highly reflective lower crust is more likely to be due to lithological variation formed by mafic igneous intrusion and underplating during crustal extension than to-extensional ductile fabrics within the lower crust.-from Authors Bullard Lab., Dept. of Earth Sci., Univ. of Cambridge, Madingley Rd., Cambridge CB3 0EX, UK.
