When there is an igneous intrusion and a fault line which one is younger?

That depends! If the fault line cross cuts the igneous intrusion causing the intrusion to be displaced on either side of the fault and forming a broken mass of rock within the intrusion known as a fault breccia then the fault is younger than the intrusions, as the intrusion must have already existed for the fault to cause it's displacement. If on the other hand the igneous intrusion cross cuts the fault and is un-deformed then it is probable that it is younger than the fault.


Which is younger a fault or sandstone?

One is not necessarily older than the other. It depends on the context. A fault running through any rock must be younger than that rock.


Why is the age of a fault in a rock younger in which it is found?

Given the law of superposition and assuming an undisturbed "pancake" stratigraphy each successive layer is younger than the the underlying one. Therefore, the fault is the 'youngest' feature in the system because the rocks need to form first in order for a fault to truncate them.


What is the difference between hot and cold extrusion?

one is hot and one is cold


One example of an extrusion is a?

One example of an extrusion is the process of creating metal rails or bars by forcing raw metal through a shaped die to produce a continuous profile.


Where can one find Network intrusion detection software?

One can find Network intrusion detection software offered by a number of companies. It can be acquired from 'White Helm', 'SANS', 'Sourcefire' and 'Snort'.


What do intrusions and extrusions do?

Extrusive rocks are... extruded... onto the surface as the lava that we all think of. It cools fairly quickly, into rocks with fairly small crystals (might need a magnifying lens to see them). The exact chemistry of the parent magma will determine the type of rock. Oceanic volcanoes are generally basaltic (mafic or ultramafic), continental are generally granitic (felsic or intermediate). They're put down in "relatively thin" layers. Intrusive rocks cool for thousands of years beneath the surface in huge plutons or batholyths. This allows them to grow very large crystals (easily seen by the unaided eye). These intrusive rocks are almost always granitic-type rock.


Where can one purchase intrusion detection systems?

Intrusion detection systems can be purchased online at various vendors' websites, such as ADT. There are also local companies that specialize in intrusion detection systems, whose contact information may be found in a phonebook.


What are the advantages of extruded plastics?

There are a number of advantages for plastic extrusion machines or plastic extrusion modelling itself. These include low cost relative to other models, flexibility to manufacture products with a consistent cross section and the ability to make alterations or modifications after the process is complete.


What is the relative age relationship of faults to the rocks they cut?

Faults are younger than the rocks they cut through, as they are formed after the rock units. The offset layers or rocks along a fault help geologists determine the relative age relationship between the fault and the surrounding rocks.


How can older rocks be found above younger rocks in a cross section?

There are two possible explanation. In one cases the underlying younger rock could be an igneous intrusion, formed when molten rock was injected into pre-existing rock and then cooled. Another explanation might be that the beds were overturned as the rock was deformed and tilted.
