Fig. 6

Down-dip projection of the geology of the Marin Headlands region of the Franciscan Complex adapted from Wahrhafig (1984). Location on Fig. 2. This view illustrates the imbricate fault repetitions of prehnite-pumpellyite facies OPS and the true structural-stratigraphic thicknesses (from the down-dip projection) of the imbricates. This is the best example of OPS in the Franciscan Complex, but it has a higher proportion of volcanic rocks (basalt) and pelagic rocks (chert), than other OPS packages in the Franciscan
