Salt–magma interactions influence intrusion distribution and salt tectonics in the Santos Basin, offshore Brazil

Basin Research, 2020
Many sedimentary basins host thick evaporite (salt) deposits. Some of these basins also host extensive igneous intrusion networks. It thus seems inevitable that, in some locations, magma will interact with salt.

Salt tectonics evolution in the Provençal Basin, Western Mediterranean Sea

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
The Messinian Salt Giant in the Provençal Basin represents a good example to study salt tectonics: salt deposition occurred throughout the basin well after basin opening, with a tectonic context stable since ∼16 Ma, in a closed system. Also, the youth of

The Impact of Pre‐Salt Rift Topography on Salt Tectonics: A Discrete‐Element Modeling Approach

Tectonics, 2019
Gravity‐driven salt tectonics along passive margins is commonly depicted as comprising domains of updip extension and downdip contraction linked by an intermediate, broadly undeformed zone of translation. This study expands on recently published physical

Review of Iberia–Eurasia plate‐boundary basins: Role of sedimentary burial and salt tectonics during rifting and continental breakup

Basin Research, 2020
We document the role of sedimentary burial and salt tectonics in controlling the deformation style of continental crust during hyperextension. The Iberian‐European boundary records a complex history of Cretaceous continental extension, which has led to ...

Lessons learned from hydrothermal to hot dry rock exploration and production

Energy Geoscience, 2023
In this paper, we investigate geothermal exploration and production in 189 hydrothermal projects and 42 hot dry rock projects around the world. The hydrothermal fields for a working hydrothermal system to generate electricity should have the elements of ...

Effects of Salt Thickness on the Structural Deformation of Foreland Fold-and-Thrust Belt in the Kuqa Depression, Tarim Basin: Insights From Discrete Element Models

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The salt layer is critical for the structural deformation in the salt-bearing fold-and-thrust system, which not only acts as the efficient décollement layer but also flows to form salt tectonics. Kuqa Depression has a well-preserved thin-skinned fold-and-

Adequate velocity model as a basis for effective seismic imaging when mapping hydrocarbon traps associated with salt domes

Геофизический журнал, 2015
This paper is the second one in a series of tutorials on the usage of modern migration methods for seismic imaging in areas of intense salt tectonics. In the paper, it is shown the importance of building an adequate velocity model for effective seismic ...
