A more definitive mapping of fracture zones, including many with no official name, or not meeting the criteria for inclusion on this map, based on the 2015 project of Wessel et al., [1] exists as of 2018. [2]. This page is used on multiple pages and has complex logic so any alteration should be checked as a minor typo can break display on ...
Some fracture zones such as Chile and Valdivia make up large sections of the Nazca-Antarctic plate boundary. Map of the Chile Rise and its fracture zones in Nazca and the Antarctic plates Active Pacific Ocean fracture zones are perpendicular to the mid-ocean ridges (black lines) in orange shaded region.

The Charlie-Gibbs fracture zone consists of two fracture zones in the North Atlantic that extend for over 2,000 km (1,200 mi). These fracture zones displace the Mid-Atlantic Ridge a total of 350 km (220 mi) to the west. The section of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge between the two fracture zones is seismically active. [6]
Obduction zones occurs when the continental plate is pushed under the oceanic plate, but this is unusual as the relative densities of the tectonic plates favours subduction of the oceanic plate. This causes the oceanic plate to buckle and usually results in a new mid-ocean ridge forming and turning the obduction into subduction.
