Paleostress fields from calcite twins in the Pyeongan Supergroup, South Korea

Abstract: Paleostress fields of the Late Paleozoic to Early Mesozoic Pyeongan Supergroup that is distributed along the northeastern part of the Ogcheon Belt in South Korea were investigated using the calcite strain gauge (CSG) technique. Combining the results of this study with those of other studies investigating the relationship between twin strain, twin density and width, which are used as indicators of deformation conditions in the natural low-temperature deformation of limestone, it was estimated that calcite twins… Show more

“…These directions and ages correlate very well with Mesozoic tectonism in South Korea, which is characterized by polycyclic deformation in the eastern Asian continental margin during the Songrim orogeny, the Daebo orogeny and the Bulguksa tectonic event. That is, the paleostress direction changed from E-W during the Songrim orogeny in the Middle Triassic via NW-SE during the Daebo orogeny in the Jurassic~Early Cretaceous to N-S during the Bulguksa tectonic event in the Middle~Late Cretaceous Koh, 1995;Kim, 1996;Kihm and Kim, 2003;Kang et al, 2005;Kim et al, 2008). Kim et al (1992) established the deformational sequence in the Danyang area by analyzing paleostress tensors with a thrust zone.…”

“…This orogeny is mild and is not clear because of the modification affected by the later Daebo orogeny. The orientation of the maximum horizontal stress may be NE-SW Kihm and Kim, 2003;Kang et al, 2005;Kim et al, 2008). Jang and Kang (1998) mentioned that the maximum horizontal stress (σ H max ) direction during the Songrim orogeny was E-W.…”

“…Dynamic analysis of calcite twins is a useful tool in areas where fault-slip data are sparse or altogether absent, and for an independent check on the results obtained from fault-slip analysis. The study of calcite e-twins for estimation of stress and strain has been used in many areas across the world, such as from the Sevier Laramide continental interior (van der Pluijm et al, 1997;Craddock and van der Pluijm, 1999); Southern Pyrenean foreland (Gonz alez-Casado and García-Cuevas, 1999); Paris basin (Rocher et al, 2004); Sheep Mountain, Wyoming (Amrouch et al, 2010); Ogcheon Belt, South Korea (Kang et al, 2005); Iberian Chain, Spain (Gonz alez-Casado and García-Cuevas, 2002); various fold-and-thrust belts including western foreland of Taiwan, Zagros fold belt and Northern Pyrenean foreland (Lacombe, 2010). These studies on mechanical twins in calcite are instrumental in deciphering the regional patterns of tectonic stress, and estimation of strain and differential stress.…”
