Abstract
Joint-drags are angular fold-structures, with steep axial planes, which frequently appear to have been developed during faulting. In Mid-Argyll, the fractures which form the axial planes to the joint-drags trend consistently NW.-SE. and dip steeply south-westwards; there is a dextral sense of movement along these fractures. It is suggested that the joint-drags were formed as a series of slip structures complementary to the sinistral NNE.-SSW. tear-fault system of the SW. Highlands of Scotland.
