 | | In order to set the record straight, we need to examine the principles behind what is known as plastic deformation. |
 | | With the burial of rock layers within the earth, the temperature is also higher, a result of the layer receiving heat from the earth, which insulates it, and heat built up due to the increased pressure. |
 | | Given time, pressure, temperature, and solution, laboratory results have demonstrated the plastic deformation capabilities of rocks, confirming the theories of rock folding which we see exhibited in the rock record. |
