Statistical features and analysis of tectonic jointing from cretaceous-neogene deposits of the Ukrainian Carpathians

Purpose. Statistical features and the distribution of the data orientation over 8 000 tectonic joints from flysch and molasses deposits of Skyba and Boryslav-Pokuttya nappes with some statistical parameters (K, C) are demonstrated. The main system of joints and the ratio of dip angles are analyzed. Relationship between statistical features of joints, the age of rocks, the tectonic position and the geological history of the Ukrainian Carpathians are defined.  Methodology.
