Primarily deformation within the detachment is brittle, although there are areas of ductile deformation within the higher strain zones. Electron Back-Scatter Diffraction (EBSD) analysis show strain partitioning from pure shear to simple shear, which is in support of macrostructural observations. The structure of this detachment can be separated into three structural zones: 1) Structural Zone 1 is characterised by metre-to-decametre-scale thrusts, decimetre-scale fault-propagation folding and no intrusions; 2) Structural Zone 2 is characterised by metre-scale thrusts and metre-scale intrusions; and 4) Structural Zone 3 is characterised by the simplest structural geometries; decimetre-to-metre-scale thrusts and minimal intrusions. Bedding, cleavage and shear planes are all parallel, strike E-W and dip moderately to the S, throughout the detachment. The deformational intensities observed within fringe complexes on the micro-scale are intrinsically linked to the decrease in deformational intensity from Structural Zone 1 to Structural Zone 3. Electron Back-Scatter Diffraction (EBSD), Source Rock Analyser (SRA) and Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analysis have constrained the temperature of deformation during the Indo-Sinian Orogeny (IO) between 150 °C to 200 °C. A structural evolution of the system has defined six stages based on interpreted structural analysis, Calcite Stress Inversion Technique (CSIT) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis. These stages are: 1) E-W normal fault stress regime during the Asselian; 2) E-W strike-slip fault stress regime with episodic periods of an E-W thrust fault stress regime that occurred in the late Permian; 3) intrusions were emplaced, causing contact metamorphism and temperatures up to 334 °C. 4) A hydrothermal event occurred, causing at least two ...
