fractured, ruptured Explanation: The term of diaclase , of the Greek dia (in two) and klasis (fracture, rupture) is used to indicate the episode during which a Roche splits without that the disjoined parts move away one from the other (not to confuse with the Faille). There is neither displacement (not rejection), nor filling. This type of fracture is often directed perpendicular to the limits of stratification. A diaclase can appear because of the Pression S to which the rock is subjected: lithostatic Pressure and forced local related to the movements. But in general, of low tectonic constraints are necessary and the diaclases are formed easily. |

diaclased Explanation: http://www.springerlink.com/content/w627708405ru24w2/ occur on surfaces with exposed, often diaclased rocks, and little soil. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W... The local flint is strongly diaclased, thus presenting often poor knapping quality http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=963259 Diaclast, Diaclastic: fractura geológica sin corrimiento de las secciones.
