Normal Faults

Reverse Faults Due to Compression

San Andres Fault in California, is a Strike Slip Fault. It is a Right Lateral Fault

Strike-Slip Faults

New Madrid Fault in Missouri is also a Strike Slip Fault

New Madrid Fault Line

An Earthquake occurred at the New Madrid Fault line on February 7, The quake was so large, that it caused the Mississippi River run backwards for several days. Small water falls were created in a few sections of the river
