Porosity induced by dislocation dynamics in quartz-rich shear bands of granitic rocks

Abstract The production of micro-pores is a driving mechanism for fluids to interact with deep environment and influence rock properties. Yet, such a porosity still remains misunderstood to occur in viscous rocks and may be attributed to either grain boundary sliding (GBS), dissolution effects or su...
