標題: | Dating palaeo-seismic faulting in the Taiwan Mountain Belt | 作者: | Chen, C.-T. Wu, C.-Y. CHING-HUA LO Chu, H.-T. Yui, T.-F. |

The dating results, distributed from 3.2 to 1.6 Ma with errors ranging from 0.2 to 1.1 Ma, were derived from a combination of two Ar isotopic system end-members with inverse isochron ages of 1.55 ± 0.05 and 2.87 ± 0.07 Ma, respectively. Petrographical observations reveal fault melt containing ultracataclasites, therefore the older inverse isochron end-member may be attributed to the relic wall rock Ar isotopic system contained in micro-breccia. Without significant Ar loss expected, the ~1.6 Ma for the young end-member defines the exact time of the pseudotachylite formation. Seismic faulting therefore occurred during basement rock exhumation in the Taiwanese hinterland. |
