A rollover anticline is directly the result of faulting. The idea is that an extensional fault ... can form with a non-smooth shape ... New sediments are deposited on the downthrown block as the fault moves. They are originally deposited as flat-lying units (zero dip). As they displace downwards, they maintain a constant angle of inclination relative to the fault dip. If the fault surface becomes less steep ... with depth, the beds become increasingly tilted (to keep the same angle between fault surface and bedding surface). ... The tilting produced by the fault ... causes the beds to dip in the opposite direction ... towards the basin margin. The reversal of dip makes an anticline. 3, record 4, English, - rollover%20anticline
