The dark portion of the fatigue fracture surface exhibits classic “beach marks”, “thumbnail marks”, “stop marks” and are clearly present in the darker portion of the fracture surface, the light portion of the fracture surface is where "fast fracture" (final separation) occurred. A common rule is Bright = Brittle fracture. Dark = Fatigue fracture.
