Figure 6

(a) Field view and line drawing of exposed section in the Mbakang quarry with stretching of small clayey layers within the beds. (b) Detailed view and line drawing of the exposed section where sandstone is pinched out to the southern direction showing large and small vertical fractures filled with clayey sandy materials. (c) Detailed view and line drawing of the exposed section where the soft mudrock layer displays a flexure, load cast, and flame structure with lenses of clay rich sandy facies while the sandy beds display faults with variable orientations and displacement magnitudes.
