Figure 1. The bedding of rocks in a centrocline

(see Figure 1). Younger rocks occur in the central parts of the arc, while older rocks are found in the lateral parts. A centrocline usually originates at the termination of a syncline where the hinge of the fold rises and the strata forming the fold are closed.
