Deutsch: Mezzaun-Störung Français: Détachement de Mezzaun English: Mezzaun Detachment Fault
The Mezzaun Detachment Fault designates the southwestern rim of the underlying dome-shaped Murtiröl Slice. It is one of the most spectacular normal faults of the Austroalpine, attributed to the Late Cretaceous phase of extension that postdates Cretaceous shortening but predates Cenozoic collision.
