Figure 13-Sequence of uninterpreted and interpreted seismic profile across the Oligocene-Miocene detachment, onshore southern Louisiana. Listric normal faults with greatly expanded Miocene strata (upper colorless interval) sole above through-going Eocene and older strata. Large counter-regional faults beneath the detachment are interpreted to be feeders for allochthonous salt since evacuated from the detachment. See Figure 2 for location.
