Abstract
⺠Soft-sediment structures are difficult to recognize where tectonically overprinted. ⺠Distinguish lithification questions from kinematic questions. ⺠Liquefaction causes sand to have lower strength than surrounding mud.⺠Class 3 folds and angular re-entrants indicate deformation during sand liquefaction. ⺠These geometries in low-grade rocks are indicators of soft-sediment deformation.
