Using the concept of geology, the true statements about the geology of the deposit in the diagram are :

  • Faulting created the differences in layers

  • Layers 2 and 9 are the same age

Faults refers to fractures on rocks such that there is a displacement in the layering. That is, the layers have moved relative to one another. This fault line represents the perpendicular line the diagram. And the fact that layers of the same age are no longer aligned depicts faulting.

Using the fossils present in the layers to predict the age of the rocks, layer 2 and 9 have the same type of fossil present in them.

Therefore, the position of the layers is most likely result from the effect of faulting making one layer move relative to another.
