Answer: South Carolina

The Carolina terrane is visible as a volcanic formation in northwest Carolina.

Generally, a terrane is a geological fragment that has broken off a tectonic plate. Because the terrane preserves its geologic character, it distinguishes itself from the crust that it attaches itself to in the form of a fault.

Sometimes a terrane is used to refer to rock formations.
