Additional insights on fracture patterns in the northern Anticosti Basin from satellite, aerial and bathymetric images

A study of the Anticosti Basin reveals that satellite imagery captures fracture patterns more accurately than aerial images, identifying two primary fracture sets trending ~N105 and ~N15. These findings align with field observations but contradict lineaments seen in aerial images, which are deemed unreliable for reflecting actual fracture patterns. The research utilized a combination of satellite, aerial, and bathymetric data to analyze the northern Anticosti Basin's geological structure, providing new insights into its tectonic history.
