Arterial faults and their role in mineralizing systems
In quartzo-feldspathic continental crust with moderate-to-high heat flow, seismic activity extends to depths of 10–20 km, bounded by isotherms in the 350–450 °C range. Fluid overpressuring above hydrostatic in seismogenic crust, is heterogeneous but tends to develop in the lower seismogenic zone (ba...
