Abstract

Halite veins hosted in clastic sedimentary rocks are frequently observed next to evaporite layers. Their microstructure can be enhanced by gamma irradiation and etching, which can be used to infer the deformation mechanism of halite (e.g. Howard & Kerr 1960, Schleder & Urai 2005). In this study, we present results from gammadecorated vein microstructures of fibrous halite veins hosted in claystone.
