Experimentally deformed feldspar aggregates

Starting material / cataclastic flow / regime 1

TA shortened 35% at 200°C, 10-5/sec, and 800 MPa; wider zone of comminution with no stress drop.

TA shortened 35% at 200°C, 10-5/sec, 800 MPa. Sample shows a discrete fault plane but a wide zone on either side of distributed cracking and multiple grain-scale faulting. This sample did not have a sudden stress drop. (W530)
