Pyrite alteration and neoformed magnetic minerals in the fault zone of the Chi‐Chi earthquake (Mw7.6, 1999): Evidence for frictional heating and co‐seismic fluids

During an earthquake, physical and chemical transformations lead to alteration and formation of minerals in the gouge layer. Altered and neoformed minerals can be used as tracers of some earthquake processes. In this study, we investigate pyrite and magnetic minerals within the host Chinshui siltsto...
