    Mineral Mountains core complex formation involved batholith tilting during fault deformation. Footwall uplift and tilt are crucial processes in extensional core complex development.

    Area of Science:

    • Geology
    • Tectonics
    • Structural Geology

    Background:

    • The Mineral Mountains core complex in Utah provides a key example for studying crustal extension.
    • Understanding the deformation processes within core complexes is essential for plate tectonics research.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the role of hanging wall and footwall deformation in the formation of the Mineral Mountains core complex.
    • To determine the timing and magnitude of tilting associated with the Beaver Valley fault and Cave Canyon detachment fault.

    Main Methods:

    • Structural analysis of the Mineral Mountains batholith and associated faults.
    • Geological mapping to identify deformed dikes and fault structures.
    • Dating of geological events to establish a timeline for deformation.

    Main Results:

    • The Mineral Mountains batholith experienced approximately 45 degrees of tilt due to folding in the hanging wall of the Beaver Valley fault (11-9 million years ago).
    • Subsequent unroofing along the Cave Canyon detachment fault resulted in an additional ~40 degrees of tilt during footwall uplift.
    • Deformed dikes beneath the detachment fault confirm significant footwall tilt during core complex formation.

    Conclusions:

    • Footwall tilt is a critical component in the development of extensional core complexes.
    • Footwall rebound plays a significant role in the overall extension process during core complex formation.
