Reactivation of fractures as discrete shear zones from fluid enhanced reaction softening, Harquahala metamorphic core complex, west-central Arizona

Discrete (mm- to m-scale) mylonitic shear zones in the northeastern Harquahala metamorphic core complex, Arizona, show evidence of fluid-mineral interactions catalyzing deformation and metamorphism. Many contain a deformed central epidote vein with adjacent bleached haloes and flanking paired shear...
