| Description |
English: Joints are fractures in rocks along which no differential displacement has occurred. This distinguishes them from faults, along which displacement has taken place.
The jointed rocks seen here are part of the Cadillac Mountain Granite, a Middle Paleozoic intrusion in Acadia National Park, Maine. Published dates of the Cadillac Mountain Granite include ~419 Ma (= Silurian-Devonian boundary times) and ~365 Ma (= Late Devonian). Locality: Thunder Hole, eastern rocky coastline of Mount Desert Island, Acadia National Park, southern shoreline of Maine, USA |
