The crystallographic preferred orientations (textures) of three samples of Black Hills
Quartzite (BHQ) deformed experimentally in the dislocation creep regimes 1, 2 and 3 …

Natural quartz single crystals were experimentally deformed in two orientations:(1)⊥ to one
prism plane and (2) in O+ orientation at 900 and 1000° C, 1.0 and 1.5 GPa, and strain rates …

Deformation experiments were carried out on pure quartzite samples (> 99% quartz) with a
grain size of∼ 200 μm from Tana, Northern Norway. Deformation conditions were 900° C …

We present an example of interaction between magmatism and tectonics at shallow crustal
levels. In the Late Miocene the metamorphic units of the eastern Elba Island (northern …

Shear experiments were performed in a Griggs-type apparatus at 800° C and 1.5 GPa, at a
strain rate of 2.1× 10− 5 s− 1 using different starting materials:(i) Powder (grain size 6–10 …

Quartz and cristobalite ballen aggregates surrounded by dendritic cristobalite in gneiss
clasts of impact melt rocks from the Ries impact structure are analyzed by Raman …

Temperature and fluid content are critical parameters that control rock rheology and strain
localization in the continental crust. Here, we determine by thermodynamic modelling the of …

Infrared absorption measurements of molecular water in sheared Cambrian quartzites in the
footwall to the Moine thrust reveal a decrease in water content from 4080 to 1570 ppm with …

At low‐temperature and high‐stress conditions, quartz deformation is controlled by the
kinetics of dislocation glide, that is, low‐temperature plasticity (LTP). To investigate the …

To evaluate changes in water distribution generated by dynamic recrystallization of quartz,
we performed infrared (IR) spectroscopy mapping of quartz in deformed granite from the …
