This study analyses the joint system of Middle Miocene Osumi granodiorite batholith in southern Kyushu, Southwest Japan. The analysis included 916 joints at 96 localities covering northern, middle, and domains exposed area batholith. Two major sets steep striking NNW ENE a minor set gentle are recognized northern middle domains. further NS EW with domain. Previous paleomagnetic studies indicate...

A sequence of sixteen photomicrographs of thin sections of unaltered quartz diorite through a zone of deformation to myrmekite-bearing granite near Temecula, California, shows the textural and mineralogical changes that occurred in a quartz diorite as (1) K-metasomatism altered the primary plagioclase crystals to form microcline, myrmekite, quartz-bleb clusters, and recrystallized sodic plagioc...

The Solund–Hyllestad–Lavik area affords an excellent opportunity to understand the ultrahigh-pressure Scandian orogeny because it contains a near-complete record of ophiolite emplacement, high-pressure metamorphism and large-scale extension. In this area, the Upper Allochthon was intruded by the c. 434 Ma Sogneskollen granodiorite and thrust eastward over the Middle ⁄ Lower Allochthon, probably...

• The 4.2 km deep Pohang PX-1 well was subject to hydraulic stimulation. Sulphate concentration and δ 34 S increase during post-stimulation flowback. Excess SO 4 2− demonstrates mineral dissolution Isotopes modelling indicate anhydrite as probable sulphate source. A stimulation carried out on a granodiorite reservoir in an enhanced geothermal system August 2017 Pohang, Korea. Water injected int...
