Fractured volcanics
Siliciclastic sandstone
Seal:
Intravolcanic tuffs
Marine shales

Figure 2
Bouguer anomaly gravity map and b) Structural map of the area in question. Both maps are from Ritchie et al. (2011). The black outlined features indicate four-way dip closures in the area along the border to UK, at ‘A-horizon’ level (see Fig. 3). See Fig. 1 for location.
Figure 3
This map shows the predicted depth to the A-horizon in meters. The A-horizon is equivalent to the onshore coal bearing formation which represents the transition between the pre- and syn-breakup volcanism, as identified on seismic data by Petersen et al. (2015). The three four-way dip closures shown on the map are as follows: Ymir Ridge, Wyville Thomson Ridge N (WTR-N) and Wyville Thomson Ridge S (WTR-S). The maximum closure is 1750 m, 1200 and 800 m, respectively. Closures have been mapped on other levels also.

Figure 6
A summary map of all seep data from the Faroese region, based on SAR seep data, air laser fluorescence, seabed cores, well data and outcrops. In the south-western part of the map region, the three largest four-way dip closures in the area, i.e. the Ymir Ridge and the Wyllie-Thompson Ridge north and south, respectively, are shown at A-horizon depth.
