“…These units within the same fold structures are connected through a pore fluid that was active during deformation, as demonstrated through comparative d 2 H data measured in illite and in water of primary fluid inclusions trapped in syntectonic veins within the carbonate layers (Fitz-Díaz et al, 2014). Comparison of d 18 O and d 13 C in calcite from veins and host carbonates supports dissolution-precipitation within limestone layers during deformation, allowing for the formation of stylolites and veins (Fitz-Díaz et al, 2011b). Illitization occurred during folding and magnetite remagnetization is synfolding; therefore, the chemical remagnetization and illiti zation are of the same geologic age.…”

Growth of magnetite has been variably linked to fluid-bearing events or clay diagenesis, and the development of a chemical remagnetization as a result of such events. In this study we examine remagnetized carbonate rocks from the central Sierra Madre Oriental (the Mexican fold-thrust belt) in order to develop a method for dating synfolding remagnetizations. By combining 40 Ar/ 39 Ar deformation ages with new paleomagnetic results, we present a quantitative method for absolute dating of synfolding remagnetization. We find that the history of the central Sierra Madre Oriental involved two separate remagnetization events in our study area; synfolding remanence acquisition ca. 77 Ma (Late Cretaceous) in the Zimapán Basin and a younger synfolding remagnetization event ca. 44 Ma (mid-Eocene) in the Tampico-Misantla Basin. The growth of magnetite leading to chemical remagnetization detected in these limestones is interpreted as the result of rock interactions with an Fe-bearing fluid.

“…This kind of dynamic tracing method was also used by Lucas et al (2010) for researching the water-rock interactions during salinization of alluvial groundwater. The influence of underground water runoff (Locsey et al 2012;Fitz-Diaz et al 2011) and the groundwater characterization (Beaucaire et al 2008) have been shown to be very important in changing the original structure and characteristics of rock and soil.…”

As groundwater activity develops in a landslide system, the water-rock (soil) interaction increasingly influences the development of the landslide hazard. In this paper, Huangtupo landslide was chosen as the subject of our research, which is located beside the Three Gorges Reservoir and the deformation continued for a long time. First, based on a comprehensive field survey, ten types of bad geological elements which probably induce the deformation were collected from different parts of landslide. These include a soft rock layer, the sliding soil, a weak intercalation and the typical rock close to the slip zone. Then, to trace the internal relationships among these samples, the microstructure, chemical composition of minerals, the migration and evolution of clay minerals, also the particle size distribution characteristics of all the samples were analyzed separately. Comparison of the result shows, that the evolutionary paths are very obvious among these samples. With the activities of water-rock (soil) interaction, the formation and evolution of main bad geological elements can be summarized. Afterwards, the detailed mechanism of interaction is revealed by focusing on four samples which compose one of these three paths, using additional data from physical and mechanical tests, the study shows how water-rock (soil) interaction affects the microstructure and weakens the mechanical properties of rock and soil. The presented detailed research probes the water-rock (soil) interaction mechanism specifically for Huangtupo riverside landslide as a case study. Furthermore, the applied multi-sample dynamic tracing method is verified as a means to discover and illustrate the deformation mechanism of landslides.
