Bibliographical note
Funding Information:Faults and folds, active during sedimentation, progressively induce thickness differences, unconformities and onlapping contacts in the stratigraphic record. Such growth structures, therefore, contain a special record of the relationship between sedimentation and deformation at the earth surface and at shallow crustal levels. The analysis of this kind of relationships applied to the earliest stages of crustal development of the earth forms part of a research project in the early Archaean of the Pilbara, sponsored by the Dr. Schürmann Foundation. Two examples are discussed (Figure1; Nijman et al. 1998a, b).
