How is a tilt block formed?

A tilt block is formed through tectonic processes, typically involving faulting and the uplift or subsidence of rock masses. When tectonic forces act on the Earth's crust, blocks of rock can be displaced along fault lines, leading to the tilting of these blocks relative to the horizontal plane. This can occur as a result of compressional or extensional forces, causing the block to tilt, creating distinct geological features in the landscape. Over time, erosion and sedimentation can further shape these tilted blocks, revealing their structural characteristics.
