Notable Impact of Paleotectonic Stress on Gold Mineralisation in the West Qinling Orogen

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
By applying fuzzy clustering and multiple inverse methods, we systematically processed the data of vein and fault slip in this ore deposit to reveal the transition of orogenic geological environment and paleotectonic stress field. Our research results show two different stress states: the northwest–southeast extensional stress field and the northeast ...

Cenozoic evolution of the eastern Black Sea: a test of depth-dependent stretching models [PDF]

, 2008
Subsidence analysis of the eastern Black Sea basin suggests that the stratigraphy of this deep, extensional basin can be explained by a predominantly pure-shear stretching history.

From Extension to Strike‐Slip Faulting Along the Western Continuation of the North Anatolian Fault in the Northern Aegean Sea: Structural, Geochronological and Geochemical Constraints

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The Northern Aegean region preserves a complex deformation pattern shaped by Miocene extension driven by retreat of the Hellenic subduction system, later overprinted by Plio–Pleistocene transtension linked to the westward propagation of the North Anatolian Fault (NAF). Although numerous structural, geophysical and geochronological studies have

Single Piezometric Stress Preserved in Strained Feldspar and Quartz From Intracontinental Lower Crust

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The strength of the intracontinental lower crust exerts a primary control on regional‐scale deformation during continent‐continent collision. Because of the nominally anhydrous nature of much of the intracontinental lower crust, it is generally considered to be more viscous than lower crust in hydrated tectonic margins.

The Magnetic Signature of Stress in Rocks

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Magnetic signatures preserved in rocks have long provided insight into Earth's evolution, revealing processes from plate tectonics to the habitability of Earth. While large impacts are known to impose extreme stresses (>1 GPa) and heat that fundamentally alters magnetic records, lower stresses typical of earthquakes have been considered ...
