説明

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Friction experiments at high velocities (0.1 to 0.4 m/s) at room temperature under high pore fluid pressures (2 or 5 MPa) and trace element analyses of the run products were carried out on simulated fault gouge derived from the Chelungpu fault, Taiwan. The friction coefficient decreased to ~0.1 during sliding, and the slip surface temperature reached 300°C by 6 m of slip displacement. The slip caused a small, but distinct decrease of Li in the deformed gouge when the slip surface temperature exceeded 300°C. The observed Li depletion agreed with calculated results, indicating that it resulted from a hydrothermal reaction at a high temperature produced by short‐duration (up to 40 s) frictional heating. The geochemical data suggest a small fluid/rock ratio and low reaction temperature in the simulated fault, which is explained by higher normal stress or repeated earthquakes which elevated fluid‐rock ratios in the natural fault.</jats:p>
