===Structural trap formation===
Structural trap formation is related to differential rotation of the ''Glob alt'' sand-prone interval. This rotation occurred between 1.3 Ma and the present. The result was the development of the rollover anticline downthrown to fault A′, which is a splay off regional fault A (Figures 4-42 and 4-43). (See<ref name=ch04r5>Apps, G. M., F. J. Peel, C. J.
