San — Andreas Tamil Yogi

The San Andreas Fault is situated in a region of significant geological complexity, with a diverse range of rocks and tectonic features. The fault zone is characterized by a 100-200 km wide zone of deformation, with numerous faults, folds, and volcanic features. The SAF is thought to have initiated during the Cretaceous period, approximately 100 million years ago, as a result of the interaction between the Pacific and North American plates.
