Abstract

The Vratislavice fault of the sudetic direction (NW-SE) has been exposed in a new road cut on eastern outskirts of the Liberec town. It can be classified as a normal dilatational fault with a multi-stage brecciation and cementation of the fault filling. It consists of over 100 m wide zone containing fragments of basic Permo-Carboniferous volcanics („melaphyres"), acidic dykes (aplites) and quartz vein stockworks
