Mechanisms for permeability modification in the damage zone of a normal fault, northern Perth Basin, Western Australia

Faults and their associated damage zones in sedimentary basins can be sealing, impeding fluid flow and creating permeability barriers, or open, creating fluid pathways. This impacts the reservoir potential of rocks in fault damage zones. Stylolitization and fracturing severely impacted permeability...
