Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) was recognized as a feature of minerals in 1899,
and petrofabric-compatible AMS fabrics were reported from 1942–1958. Shortly thereafter …

Empirical relationships between magnetic fabrics and deformation have long served as a
fast and efficient way to interpret rock textures. Understanding the single crystal magnetic …

Processes involved in the development of igneous and metamorphic rocks involve some
combination of crystal growth, solution, movement and deformation, which is expressed as …

High-resolution X-ray computed tomography (HRXCT) provides detailed imagery of the
interiors of rocks up to hand-sample size, non-destructively and in three dimensions. New …

When studying weakly anisotropic rocks non-standard relationships between magnetic and
expected petrofabric axes are sometimes observed, in particular the so-called inverse or …

The Eastern Nigeria terrane belongs to the 3000 km-long Trans-Saharan belt which was
formed in the Neoproterozoic, between 750 and 500 Ma by continental collision between the …

Résumé On rappelle d'abord le principe de la mesure de l'anisotropie de la susceptibilité
magnétique, ou ASM, ainsi que les éléments de minéralogie magnétique, ici appliqués aux …

A new study of Black Mesa pluton (Henry Mountains, Colorado Plateau, Utah, USA)
indicates that it is a classic example of a small upper-crustal pluton assembled over a few …

The Closepet granite, in South India, is a large (400km long but only 30km wide), elongate,
Late Archaean granitic body. Structural levels from deep crust to upper levels crop out, as …

The anisotropic nature of fabric and internal structures plays a significant role in fluid flow,
heat transfer, and geomechanical behavior in rock. The existence and orientation of …
