Download or read book Tectonic Evolution Fault Architecture and Paleo fluid Circulation in Transpressive Systems Southern Haiti written by Richard Wessels and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haiti is located on the western part of the island of Hispaniola, shared with the Dominican Republic in the east. Haiti is situated within the northern Caribbean plate boundary region where relative motion between the Caribbean and North American plates is accommodated by a complex system of fault-bounded microplates and tectonic blocks. Two seismogenic strike-slip faults related to this system are found in Haiti; the Enriquillo - Plantain Garden Fault Zone (EGPFZ) onshore southern Haiti, and the Septentrional Fault Zone (SFZ) offshore northern Haiti, with the southwest-verging, forward-propagating Haitian Fold-and-Thrust Belt situated in between them. The geology and geodynamic setting of Haiti became the focus of increased scientific interest following the January 12th 2010 Mw 7.0 Leogâne earthquake, which struck southern Haiti close to its capital Port-au-Prince. This study, which is a collaboration between Sorbonne Université, IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEn), Université d'Etat d'Haïti (UEH), URGéo, and Bureau des Mines et de l'Energie d'Haïti (BME), is dedicated to increase our knowledge of the onshore geology of southern Haiti. There are three main objectives to this study; 1) identify the number and timing of deformation phases on the Southern Peninsula of Haiti, their regional impact, and the associated structural style of deformation and paleo-stress evolution, 2) constrain the deformation history of the southernmost onshore part of the Haitian Fold-and-Thrust Belt (the Chaîne des Matheux), the structural style of deformation and the associated paleo-stress evolution, and 3) characterize the interaction between fluids and deformation by examining the paleo-fluid circulation related to deformation in both regions. To fulfill these objectives this study integrates geological data and observations onshore Haiti from field campaigns in 2015 and 2017. Stratigraphic and structural data are combined with satellite imagery and digital elevation models to create four small-scale (~1:50.000) geological maps and associated cross sections. These are used to better understand and constraining the style of deformation in the region. Samples of host rocks and veins from fault zones and fractures are analyzed using a suite of analytical techniques, which include optical and cathodoluminescence microscopy, fluid inclusion microthermometry and Raman spectroscopy on fluid inclusions, x-ray diffraction, stable oxygen and carbon isotope geochemistry, and whole-rock geochemistry, all of which are integrated to constrain the paleofluid circulation. The results of this study indicate that 1) the Southern Peninsula evolved by basement-involved inversion, thrusting, and strike-slip, while 2) the style of deformation in the Chaîne des Matheux is predominantly thin-skinned controlled by shallow dipping decollement levels, although a component of thick-skinned basement-involved deformation is probable. The polyphase deformation history of the Southern Peninsula is characterized by three major tectonic events; 1) Deformation and uplift during the Maastrichtian and early Paleocene, 2) early Miocene compression and uplift that mainly affected the southwestern part of the Southern Peninsula, and 3) transpressive deformation from the late Miocene to recent. This last phase is characterized by a progressive focus of strike-slip activity along the EPGFZ, which accommodated a maximum of 15 km of left-lateral displacement since the late Messinian [...].

Download or read book The Geology of the Atlantic Ocean written by Kenneth O. Emery and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 1063 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The explosion of interest, effort, and information about the ocean since about 1950 has produced many thousand scientific articles and many hun dred books. In fact, the outpouring has been so large that authors have been unable to read much of what has been published, so they have tended to concentrate their own work within smaller and smaller subfields of oceanog raphy. Summaries of information published in books have taken two main paths. One is the grouping of separately authored chapters into symposia type books, with their inevitable overlaps and gaps between chapters. The other is production of lightly researched books containing drawings and tables from previous pUblications, with due credit given but showing assem bly-line writing with little penetration of the unknown. Only a few books have combined new and previous data and thoughts into new maps and syntheses that relate the contributions of observed biological, chemical, geological, and physical processes to solve broad problems associated with the shape, composition, and history of the oceans. Such a broad synthesis is the objective of this book, in which we tried to bring together many of the pieces of research that were deemed to be of manageable size by their originators. The composite may form a sort of plateau above which later studies can rise, possibly benefited by our assem bly of data in the form of new maps and figures.

Download or read book The Geology and Mineral Resources of Northern Haiti written by Ricardo Valls and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The geology of Northern Haiti corresponds to a volcanic arc of Meso-Cenozoic Age that can be traced from Central Cuba, through the Dominican Republic and forms part of the mountains of the Massif du Nord group oriented NW-SE. This group is composed mainly by volcanic tuffs and lavas from the volcanic belt, ranging in composition from felsic, through intermediate, to mafic and ultramafic rocks. The belt is composed of numerous lenticular bodies of lavas and pyroclastic material of felsic composition, varying from dacite to rhyolite, embedded in a thick series of predominant mafic volcanoclastic rocks, mainly andesite with lesser amounts of basalts, with numerous intercalations of diverse sedimentary rocks, like radiolarians cherts, carbonate rocks, and tuffs. Copper and gold are the two main ore types in the area. Copper is usually found associated with the porphyritic facies, the apophyses microtonalitics, and the silicified zones, filling fissures and fractures, as well as disseminated. Within the quartz vein systems, the copper is contained in the chalcopyrite, while the gold appears both as native gold and as a very fine disseminated gold in the sulphide zone. It can also form spectacular concentrations on the oxidised cap.
