Deconvoluting complex structural histories archived in brittle fault zones
Understanding when brittle rock faulting took place can help unravel the history of deformation in the Earth’s crust. The authors here develop a new approach to date faults using a combination of K-Ar isotopic dating of illite and structural analysis to provide high resolution dates of the faults.
