7. Carbonate mound Blocky facies Well-layered reflectors with thin transparent layers Headwall scars EW (Antobreh and Krastel 2006) Mauritania Slide Complex Cape Verde Rise Stacks of debris flow deposits Contouritic deposit Fluid escape features Thin well-layered reflector packages

8. Core GeoB 8523 (middle slope position) Clast-rich debrite with internal deformation structures within the clasts (210cm to 285cm), e.g. thinning, stretching and shearing and with a rotational fold structure in the matrix. A thin shell rich layer erosive cuts down into an over-consolidated and sheared hemipelagite unit beneath. Textural line drawing from radiograph analysis: (1) Hemipelagic units at the top and base (2) Turbidite bed in the middle section (3) Debrite in the lower section Henrich et al., Marine and Petroleum Geology, in press
