Structural and temporal evolution of a reactivated brittle-ductile fault - Part II: Timing of fault initiation and reactivation by K-Ar dating of synkinematic illite/muscovite

Present-day exposures of ancient faults represent only the end result of the faults' often protracted and heterogeneous histories. Here we apply K–Ar dating of synkinematic illite/muscovite to constrain the timing of the complete temporal evolution of a complex, multiply-reactivated brittle–duc...
