its A Angular unconformity
thanks it was right! yay!
yw . you can close ur question now ^_^ Welcome to Openstudy :)
u know what is Angular unconformity An angular unconformity is an unconformity where horizontally parallel strata of sedimentary rock are deposited on tilted and eroded layers, producing an angular discordance with the overlying horizontal layers. The whole sequence may later be deformed and tilted by further orogenic activity. A typical case history is presented by the paleotectonic evolution of the Briançonnais realm (Swiss and French Prealps) during the Jurassic (Septfontaine, 1984, 1995).
