- W4244484080 abstract "Abstract. We studied gouge from an upper-crustal, low offset reverse fault in slightly overconsolidated claystone in the Mont Terri rock laboratory (CH). The laboratory is designed to evaluate the suitability of the Opalinus Clay formation (OPA) to host a repository for radioactive waste. The macroscopically dark gouge displays a matrix-based, P-foliated microfabric bordered and truncated by μm-thin shear zones consisting of aligned clay grains, as shown by BIB-SEM and optical microscopy. TEM-SAED shows evidence for randomly oriented nm-sized clay particles in the gouge matrix, surrounding larger elongated phyllosilicates with a strict P-foliation. For the first time in OPA, we report the occurrence of amorphous SiO2 grains within the gouge. Gouge has lower SEM-visible porosity and almost no calcite grains, compared to undeformed OPA. We present two hypotheses to explain the origin of gouge in the Main Fault: (i) authigenic generation: fluid-mediated removal of calcite from deforming OPA during shearing, (ii) and clay smear: mechanical smearing of calcite-poor (yet to be identified) source layers into the fault zone. Based on our data we prefer the first or a combination of both, but more work is needed to resolve this. Microstructures indicate a range of deformation mechanisms including solution-precipitation processes and a gouge which is weaker than OPA because of the lower fraction of hard grains. We infer that the long-term rheology of gouge is more strongly rate-dependent than suggested from laboratory experiments." @default.
