Shear sense is dextral. Width of photograph is 2.5 mm. Field photograph of extensional shear bands in highly deformed greenschist-facies sediments of a crustal-scale extensional shear zone (Menderes ...
The mineralization, which lies in a northeast-trending fault zone that has been affected by dextral crossfaulting, has been grouped into two main lenses - the North Zone and the South Zone.
These rocks were again subjected to a third dextral shearing event which resulted in some remobilization in metals. Figure 1: ...
Dating Landslides Along the Eastern Denali and Duke River Fault System, Kluane Lake, Yukon The Denali Fault system is an intracontinental, dextral strike-slip and thrust system that extends southeast ...
Ductile deformation fabrics indicate top-to-the-SSW for low-angle reverse faults and dextral strike-slip for high-angle shear zones. Geometrical relationships between these fault sets are consistent ...
Movement along the fault may have been mainly strike-slip (dextral) but thrusting may also have been very important. In this scenario, the Meguma Zone acts as a portion of the continental margin of a ...
