Sedimentology of the Atacama Desert Miocene to Pliocene sedimentary rocks in northern Chile occur within two fault-bounded basins‚ the Central Depression (including an eastward extension‚ the Calama basin) and the Preandean Depression (Fig. 2) (Hartley and Chong‚ 2002).

As the African tectonic plate GRADUALLY pushed the edge of the tectonic plate and the original horizontal layers of the rocks went folded or bent by the faults. Large amounts of older‚ buried rocks were pushed northwestward‚ up and over younger rocks along a large nearly flat lying thrust fault‚ know now as the great smoky fault. After the natural process of the Appalachian mountain building the supercontinent of Pangea broke apart and the North American and African tectonic plates GRADUALLY

According to Ritzer these are the four primary components of McDonaldization. The First is Efficiency. Efficiency is thrust upon a person‚ so instead of choosing your own methods of efficiency‚ you are forced to accept the efficiency of the surrounding institutions. Efficiency is convenient for the business but makes more work for the consumer. A few examples are ATM’S
