The Memory of a Fault Gouge: An Example from the Simplon Fault Zone (Central Alps)
Faut gouge forms at the core of the fault as the result of a slip in the upper brittle crust. Therefore, the deformation mechanisms and conditions under which the fault gouge was formed can document the stages of fault movement in the crust. We carried out a microstructural analysis on a fault gouge...
