Description:Deep continental crustal structures are enigmatic due to lack of direct exposures and limited tools to investigate them remotely. Seismic waves can sample these rocks, but most seismic methods focus on coarse crustal structures while laboratory measurements concentrate on crystal-scale rock properties, and little work has been conducted to bridge this interpretation gap. In some places, geologic maps of crystalline basement provide samples of the intermediate-scale fabrics and structures that may represent in situ deep crust. However, previous research has not considered natural geometric variations from map data, nor is this heterogeneity typically included in map-scale seismic property calculations. Here, we test how map-scale fabrics influence
