Lithological is the science of the nature and composition of rocks.
the object of well logging is to correlate information to identify lithological
Read an article by Darren Page called "Lithological Characteristics of the Lambeth Group" in a journal called "Ground Engineering"Alternatively...http://www.nce.co.uk/lithological-characteristics-of-the-lambeth-group/685104.articleThe journal is better though because there are some great tables and diagrams.Richard
Trust faults typically have low dip angles. A high-angle thrust fault is called a reverse fault. A reverse fault occurs primarily across lithological units where as a thrust usually occurs within or at a low angle to lithological units.
The lithological study of Bholari sandstone would involve examining its grain size, texture, and sedimentary structures. Meanwhile, mineralogical studies would analyze the composition of minerals present in the sandstone, which could include quartz, feldspar, and clay minerals. These studies help to understand the origin, depositional environment, and diagenetic history of the Bholari sandstone.

A lithological trap is a type of geological structure where hydrocarbons accumulate due to the presence of specific rock types or lithologies that prevent the movement of oil and gas, creating a reservoir. These traps can include stratigraphic features like pinchouts or unconformities where impermeable rocks cap porous ones, trapping hydrocarbons beneath the surface. Understanding the lithology of a region is crucial in oil and gas exploration to identify potential trapping mechanisms.
Compression forces push against each other, causing the rock layers to slide along a reverse fault. The rocks move upward and over each other, creating a thrust fault with an inclined fault plane. This movement is caused by the compressional stress exerted on the rocks.

Several evidences were given as proof to the theory of continental drift, they include; 1. Climatic evidence (Paleoclimatic Reconstruction). 2. Fossil evidence (Paleontological proof). 3. Continental fit. (Continental margin shapes). 4. Lithological and Stratigrapical similarities of adjacent continental masses. 5. Seafloor spreading. 6. Glacial till. 7. Plate tectonics.
