Difference between Moine Thrust Belt and Thrust fault

Moine Thrust Belt vs. Thrust fault

The Moine Thrust Belt is a linear geological feature in the Scottish Highlands which runs from Loch Eriboll on the north coast south-west to the Sleat peninsula on the Isle of Skye. A thrust fault is a break in the Earth's crust, across which older rocks are pushed above younger rocks.

Similarities between Moine Thrust Belt and Thrust fault
