      Tearing crevices / cracks
      Bürser fissures are cracks of different widths and lengths that occur in the Bürser conglomerate (coarse-grained, clastic sedimentary rock).
      Schrunde was a word that was seldom used in High German as early as the 19th century and means: crack, crack, fracture, crevice, schranz, tear, tear, etc. in a solid body (e.g. rock, ice, earth, but also skin). In the case of the Bürser Schrunden, it is used in the sense of rock or earth fissures, etc.
      The Bürser fissures arose because the Bürser conglomerate only partially and superficially solidified. Among them z. B. are almost loose gravel. If parts of the earth's surface slide off, they tear open the fissures (crevices), some of them profoundly. These cracks are enlarged by penetrating water.
      Other possibilities for the formation of cracks are extreme heat (e.g. the earth gets cracks as a result), but a solid wall can also crack (cracks).
