Historical information

Anticlines are folded rock formations that have an upwards convex shape. Anticlines can exist as a single fold or as a series of adjacent folds of alternating synclines and anticlines.

The Hepburn Springs anticline is geologically associated with the west dipping fissures cutting across sandstone strata of the Hepburn Spring anticline.
