Frictional stability of Longmaxi shale gouges and its implication for deep seismic potential in the southeastern Sichuan Basin

Abstract Microearthquakes accompanying shale gas recovery highlight the importance of exploring the frictional and stability properties of shale gouges. Aiming to reveal the influencing factors on fault stability, this paper explores the impact of mineral compositions, effective stress and temperatu...
