Palaeopermeability structure within fault-damage zones: A snap-shot from microfracture analyses in a strike-slip system
Rodrigo Gomila,Gloria Arancibia,Thomas M. Mitchell,Thomas M. Mitchell,José Cembrano,Daniel R. Faulkner +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the conditions and distribution of fluid transport properties in fault zones based on hydrothermally filled microfractures, which reflect the instantaneous advective hydrothermal activity and record palaeopermeability conditions of the fault-fracture system, were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid-rock interactions in seismic faults : implications from the structures and mineralogical and geochemical compositions of drilling cores from the rupture of the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, China
TL;DR: In this article, structural features and mineralogical and geochemical compositions of the fault rocks recovered from boreholes at the Golden River site on the Yingxiu-Beichuan fault, which activated and slipped along a 240 km-long main surface rupture zone during the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, were described.

Characterizations of geothermal springs along the Moxi deep fault in the western Sichuan plateau, China
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the origin and variations of the geothermal spring group controlled by the Moxi fault and discussed conditions in the deep ground, and provided a conceptual deep heat source model for geothermal flow and the reservoir characteristics.

Amphibole composition in tonalite as a function of pressure: an experimental calibration of the Al-in-hornblende barometer
TL;DR: The Al-in-hornblende barometer, which correlates Altot content of magmatic hornblende linearly with crystallization pressure of intrusion (Hammarstrom and Zen 1986), has been calibrated experimentally under water-saturated conditions at pressures of 2.5-13 kbar and temperatures of 700-655°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
The isocon diagram; a simple solution to Gresens' equation for metasomatic alteration
TL;DR: In this paper, the Gresens' equation is rearranged into a linear relationship between the concentration of a component in the altered rock and that in the original, and the solution of such equations for all components that show no relative gain or loss of mass defines an isocon.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of recent developments concerning the structure, mechanics and fluid flow properties of fault zones
Daniel R. Faulkner,Christopher A.-L. Jackson,Rebecca J. Lunn,Roy W. Schlische,Zoe K. Shipton,Christopher A. J. Wibberley,Martha Oliver Withjack +6 more
TL;DR: Fault zones and fault systems have a key role in the development of the Earth's crust and control the mechanics and fluid flow properties of the crust, and the architecture of sedimentary deposits in basins as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Composition-volume relationships of metasomatism
TL;DR: In this article, a general set of equations is derived that allows calculations of gains and losses in terms of the chemical analyses and the specific gravities of the unaltered and metasomatized rocks or minerals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calcic amphibole equilibria and a new amphibole-plagioclase geothermometer
TL;DR: A semi-empirical thermodynamic evaluation of the available experimental data on amphibole+plagioclase assemblages leads to a new thermometer based on the Aliv content of amphibole coexisting with plagiocase in silica saturated rocks.
