Ceraunius Fossae

Ceraunius Fossae is an area of intensely fractured terrain in the northern Tharsis region of Mars . It lies directly south of the large volcano Alba Mons and consists of ancient highland crust that has been deformed by numerous parallel faults and tension cracks. [2] In places, younger lava flows cover the fractured terrain, dividing it into several large patches or islands. [3] It is found in the Tharsis quadrangle .
