Abstract
The authors have made quantitative determination of the finite strain from microfolds in the Precambrian rocks from two localities in eastern India. The strain measurements indicate that the schistosity in one example and the crenulation cleavage in the other are perpendicular to the direction of maximum finite shortening.Keywords
