Abstract

A Tithonian sequence of shallow-water limestones, intercalated with siliciclastics and overlain by dolomite, was recovered during drilling at ODP Site 639 on the edge of a tilted fault block. The carbonates were strongly affected by fracturing, dolomitization, dedolomitization, and compaction. The chronology and nature of the fractures, fracture infilling, and diagenesis of the host rock are established and correlated for both the limestone and the dolomite. -from Authors
