Fig. 6.72. Geophantasmograms illustrating terrigenous and carbonate deep-sea sedimentary models. Note that terrigenous
sands are normally deposited from channel point sources. The slope may either be (A) a prograding delta or (B) a submarine
fault scarp. Deep-sea carbonates develop from linear shelf edges of tectonic or atectonic origin. (C) Carbonate slope apron and
(D) base of slope apron models proposed by Mullins and Cook (1986).
