(A) North–south geological cross sections along lines X–Y (see Fig. 1C,D for the location). Ridges in the HPU are symmetrical and up to 8 m high along this line. Wavelength of ridges is 150 m. The SU exclusively occurs on the south-sloping flanks of these ridges and extends to troughs between them. (B) North – south geological cross section along K–Y (see Fig. 1D,E for the location). The cross section is along the rover’s traverse in the Kimberley region. It indicates that the ridge on which the SU deposited is moderately to highly eroded.
