Published in 2019 at "Journal of Asian Earth Sciences"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2018.08.024

Abstract: Abstract Three types of iron ore, including banded ore, hydrothermal-metasomatic ore and earthy hematite ochre occur in Hormuz and Pohl salt diapirs. Primary banded ores of upper Neoproterozoic age contain alternating iron-rich and silica-rich bands,… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Marine Geology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2017.04.013

Abstract: Abstract The origin of anhydrite caprocks found in many evaporite basins is currently under debate. Existing models in the literature for anhydrite formation include rotated stratigraphic layering, rotated crestal caprock and diagenetic anhydrite. In this… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Tectonophysics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2017.12.025

Abstract: Abstract This work uses high-quality 3D seismic data to assess the geometry of fault families around salt diapirs in SE Brazil (Espirito Santo Basin). It aims at evaluating the timings of fault growth, and suggests… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Tectonics"

DOI: 10.1029/2022tc007670

Abstract: Ephemeral subaerial salt diapirs are gravitationally unstable and vulnerable to climate and tectonic activity due to the rheology and incompressibility of rock salt. Quantifying the kinematics of subaerial salt and clarifying the role of tectonics,… read more here.
