Tech/Engineering - Geology / mining, geology
English term or phrase: bounding fault
"The southern limit of the granite is by the bounding fault on the western side of graben."
"Bounding" doesn't appear in my geology dictionnaries/glossaries as a type o fault. I supposed it must be named there under another name.
I'll appreciate any help you can give!
Thank you!
