Fault blocks are very large blocks of rock, sometimes hundreds of kilometres in extent, created by tectonic and localized stresses in Earth's crust. Large areas of bedrock are broken up into blocks by faults. Blocks are characterized by relatively uniform lithology.

Answer:

Block mountains are characterized by massiveness, steep slopes, and comparatively smooth topography. They usually arise in folded zones that once had a mountain relief but have lost their plasticity and been smoothed by denudation.
