This is a universal problem that goes back a long ways, particularly if you're working with small earthquakes. Look at some of the Basin and Range literature from folks at the Utah Seismic lab--R.B. Smith, Walter Arabasz (sp?), or usgs folks

Subject: Listric faults in Igneous
Dear All,
Are listric normal faults common at seismogenic depths in Igneous terranes (
almost at the base of an active volcano) ?.
I am having troubles linking fault geometry at surface with focal solutions at 7
and 10 km depth.
Suggestions are very welcomed.
