An intermittent detachment faulting system with a large sulfide deposit revealed by multi-scale magnetic surveys
In ultraslow-spreading ridges intermittent detachment faulting could contribute to discontinuous magmatic accretion supporting the development of massive sulfide deposits. Here the authors using a multi-scale magnetic survey of the Southwest Indian Ridge constrain that an episode of detachment fault...
