==Traditional structure cross section==
Traditional regional cross sections, such as in the figure below, have shown highly [[Deformation|deformed]] salt rooted within the in-place Middle Jurassic mother salt. Such cross sections have been used to suggest that successive [[Depocenter#Sediment_supply_rate_and_facies_patterns|progradation]] of siliciclastics loaded and displaced the salt as each sedimentary cycle's depocenter stepped progressively basinward. Differential loading of the salt formed deeply rooted diapirs and shallow [[growth fault]]s as a result of sediment downbuilding and consequent displacement of salt. Mature [[source rock]]s occurring between the deeply rooted diapirs could yield hydrocarbons able to migrate within each salt-walled compartment of each depocenter.
