p.28: The NW–SE trending La Lance Fault is cutting across Lac de Neuchâtel into the Jura Mountains. Similarly, numerous major faults of the Internal Folded Jura extend into the Foreland Plateau and form a continuous conjugated faults system. In the western part of the Foreland Plateau, these vertical strike-slip faults are confined to the detached terrain like in the Internal Folded Jura, and do not root into the basement. In the more central part north of Bern, however, Mock & Herwegh (2017) also reported NNE – SSW striking, deeply rooted strike-slip faults.
