单词	inlier
释义	inlier /ˈɪnlʌɪə / noun Geology An older rock formation isolated among newer rocks.At the base of the erosional hollow, an inlier of Jurassic rocks crops out below the late Cimmerian unconformity.... These rocks do not, however, crop out as a continuous mountain range but in isolated inliers, many of which were uplifted during the Tertiary in response to Alpine movements. However, it is thought that the Lower Palaeozoic inliers to the southeast (Kildare and Leinster Massif) were emergent at the time of mineralization. Origin Mid 19th century: from in, on the pattern of outlier.
