During the second phase of Alpine Fault, Deep Fault Drilling Project (DFDP) in Whataroa River, South Westland, New Zealand, bedrock was encountered DFDP-2B borehole from 238.5–893.2 m Measured Depth (MD). Continuous sampling and meso- to microscale characterisation whole rock cuttings established that, sequence, sampled amphibolite facies, Torlesse Composite Terrane-derived schists, protomylonites mylonites, terminating 200–400 above an Principal Slip Zone (PSZ) with a maximum dip 62°.

Abstract We present a new approach to identifying the source and age of paleofluids associated with low‐temperature deformation in brittle crust, using hydrogen isotopic compositions (δD) 40 Ar/ 39 Ar geochronology authigenic illite clay gouge‐bearing fault zones. The procedure involves grain‐size separation, polytype modeling, analysis, creating mixing line that is used extrapolate δD pure detrital material. use this method on samples collected along surface trace today's North Anatolian...
Abstract Isotopic and geochronologic investigation of authigenic, K‐bearing clays in the Appalachian Plateau northeastern U.S. Midcontinent yields new insights about tectonic diagenetic history North American sedimentary cover sequence. In situ texture analysis by High Resolution X‐ray Texture Goniometry indicates preservation bedding‐parallel fabrics with burial depths 2–5 km, illite mineralization temperatures are spatially variable, ranging from 80 to 190 °C, correlating similar 3–6 km....
