Description / Table of Contents: This volume studies the driving dynamic for thick-skin tectonics. It evaluates the role of various factors that control the development of thick-skin architecture. The studied driving dynamics include individual plate movement rates, overall convergence rates, orogen movement sense with respect to mantle flow and pro-wedge versus retro-wedge location. Numerous internal factors that influence the architecture of thick-skinned dominated orogens have been considered. These include the role of the rheology of the deforming layers, the presence or absence of potential detachment horizons, basement buttresses, crustal thickness variations, inherited strength contrasts and the impact of pre-existing anisotropy in thick-skin orogenic deformation. External factors discussed include the role of both syn-tectonic erosion and deposition in deformation. The study areas begin with worldwide examples and close with a detailed coverage of the Northern Andes natural laboratory, which is characterized by particularly robust data coverage.

Description: This chapter focuses on the evolution of fractures during the inversion of the Bristol Channel Basin, and examines the lateral and vertical consistency of the resulting fracture network within the alternating Liassic limestones and shales. The study has two principal aims. The first is to determine the reliability of fracture systems deduced using more limited data from less well-exposed regions or unexposed regions sampled only by drilling, and the second is to assess whether the fractures are linked to a regional stress field or are the result of a local stress field controlled by the geometry and mechanism of formation of a fold. The joint patterns were studied using a combination of scanline and window sampling, and the results indicate that there are considerable variations in the fracture systems between adjacent limestone beds and also lateral variation within the same bed. Although there is little doubt that the independent development of fracture patterns in adjacent limestone beds is facilitated by the intervening shale horizons, which allow them to become mechanically decoupled, the reasons for these variations are still unclear.

The implications of fracture swarms in the Chalk of SE England on the tectonic history of the basin and their impact on fluid flow in high-porosity, low-permeability rocks (2007)

Description: The Upper Cretaceous (Senonian) Chalk in Kent, SE England, is considered with the aim of establishing the tectonic history of the basin in which it was deposited, based on the chronology of fractures and an understanding of the role of these fractures in controlling fluid movement in high-porosity-low-permeability sediments. The earliest brittle structures in the study area are NE-SW-striking, flint-filled shear fractures, with dips of c. 60{degrees}, which were formed when the maximum compression ({sigma}1) was vertical and were utilized as channels for fluid movement during flint filling. Flint also occurs along bedding planes, suggesting a diagenetic source. This phase was followed by the development of NW-SE-striking fracture swarms containing fractures ranging between vertical joints and steeply dipping hybrid fractures with acute dihedral angles of c. 40{degrees}. The absence of flint along these fractures indicates that they formed after diagenesis of the Chalk. NW-SE-striking, subvertical, regularly spaced, through-going joints then formed as a result of a NW-SE regional compression linked to the Alpine collision. The final stage in the basin history relates to the formation of bed-parallel and vertical (i.e. bed-normal), bed-restricted, systematic and unsystematic fractures associated with uplift and unloading. To model fluid flow through the fracture network present in the Chalk, a finite-element-finite-volume modelling was carried out. The fracture geometries mapped in the field were discretized using unstructured hybrid element meshes with discrete fracture representations. The permeability of fractures was calculated from the cubic law and the petrophysical properties of the rock matrix were taken from Chalk reservoirs in the North Sea. In the models, a constant pressure was applied at the top of the oil-saturated, fractured Chalk while water was injected at the base. In spite of greater density, the water preferentially displaced the oil from the fractures and migrated faster through the fracture swarms and joints than through bed-restricted fractures and the rock matrix. Almost 830f the total flow within the model occurred through the fractures. The results of the field study, combined with those of the numerical modelling, suggest that fracture swarms have a strong impact on the movement of fluids in fractured and faulted reservoirs.

Description: Lateral structural variability and partitioning of fold-thrust belts often reflects lateral variations in the stratigraphy of the deforming foreland and interaction with inherited structures. The Keping Shan Thrust Belt, NW China, was initiated during the late Cenozoic and is a spectacular example of contractional deformation in a foreland setting. The belt is characterized by a series of imbricate thrusts which form a broadly arcuate salient and deform the thick (3-6 km) Phanerozoic sedimentary succession of the NW Tarim Basin (SW Tien Shan foreland). Abrupt lateral changes in the thickness of the sedimentary succession are associated with a series of major pre-existing basement faults which cross-cut the belt and which were probably initiated during early Permian times. These lateral variations in the basin template have impacted strongly on the structural architecture of the superimposed thrust belt. Variations in the thickness of the sediment pile affect the spatial distribution of thrusts, which increase in abundance where the sediment is thinnest. The inherited cross-cutting basement faults and the associated abrupt changes in sediment thickness combine to generate partitioning of the thrust belt.

Description: Fluid flow through fractured media is dependent upon a variety of parameters including fracture length, orientation and density, and also on the relative magnitude of the lithostatic stress and the fluid pressure. Because of this it is often difficult to determine the fluid pathway through a particular fracture system even when the geometry of the network is known. Although many fluids (e.g. gas, water etc.) leave little or no evidence of their passage through the rock others such as magmas and fluidized sediments preserve the pathways they follow by forming dykes and sills. It is found that the pathways preserved by the two types of fluids are different i.e. the spacing of the clastic dykes follows a power-law distribution and that of the igneous dykes a log-normal distribution. It is suggested that this in part might reflect the different properties of the dyke material (specifically its permeability) which determines whether or not the fracture containing the dyke can continue to act as a channel of easy fluid migration once the dyke has been emplaced.

The geometry of structures in the Zagros cover rocks and its neotectonic implications (2002)

Description: The Zagros Mountains are situated along the NE margin of the Arabian plate and are the product of complex deformation which began in Late Cretaceous time as a result of the collision between the Arabian and Central Iranian plates. During Pliocene time, deformation increased when plate convergence was accelerated by the opening of the Red Sea. This stimulated the migration of a deformation front from the collision zone towards the SW into the undisturbed Zagros basin and led to the creation of the Zagros Mountain Belt. The type and distribution of the deformation in the Zagros are controlled mainly by plate velocity, which is linked to the anticlockwise rotation of the Arabian plate around a pole in Syria, and the regional stratigraphy. The sedimentary cover and the underlying metamorphic basement decouple along an important detachment horizon, the Hormuz Salt Formation, and the uneven thickness and distribution of this salt plays a key role in determining the geometry of the deformation belt. Analysis of the distribution and geometry of the folds provides evidence for the southwestwards migration of the deformation front into the Arabian plate. The analyses are consistent with field evidence for serial folding, which indicates that each fold takes c. 600 ka to develop fully, and with the model of a southwestward advancing deformation front driven by the processes of serial folding and footwall collapse.
