Definition
A seam or line where two things are joined or fused together, especially in geology or metalwork.
Etymology
From Latin 'fusura' (a joining or melting together), derived from 'fundere' (to pour, melt). The word evolved through Old French to describe the result of fusion processes.
Kelly Says
Fusure is crucial in geology—geologists use it to identify where continental plates have collided and welded together, literally leaving seam marks in the Earth's crust that tell stories millions of years old.
