Every time I've seen such terraces (minus the tilted angle) they were 
created by large machines, mining for minerals. One such place near here 
is called Carson Hill, and was one of the very first places known to 
have the gold telluride, Calaverite. It's a mix of gold and silver in 
crystal form.

Your image is looking good. It's like an old strip-mining operation has 
been under the stresses of plate-shift.
