Clay Type, Not Just Content, Crucial for Fault Zone Permeability

by Michael Heap 14 February 202219 October 2022

Faults containing clays are often considered as barriers to fluid flow but new work shows that fault processes leading to the formation of clays can increase permeability relative to the host rock.
