I love it when an idea for a column comes from something that I see every day and yet have barely noticed before. It was on a dog walk that ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

These rocks were again subjected to a third dextral shearing event which resulted in some remobilization in metals. Figure 1: Location of the Pichette Project within the Beardmore-Geraldton ...

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 ...
