→Subaqueous slump deposits
In other instances, normal progradation of deltaic sequences across the growth fault zone results in thicker accumulations of mass-moved sediment on the downthrown side of the fault systems. Mass-moved sediment on the downthrown side is most common near the lower, more marine parts of the delta sequence.
