  gneous dykes are the main magma transport pathways through the Earth’s crust, and they are considered to mainly accommodate for tectonic extension in volcanic rifts. Dykes are typically considered to result from brittle fracturing, even in the ductile crust. A common assumption is that dyke orientation is controlled by tectonic stresses, such that dykes in rifts are expected to be vertical and perpendicular to extension. Here we report on detailed field observations of a spectacularly well-exposed dyke swarm to show that dykes were not systematically emplaced by purely brittle processes and that dyke orientation may differ from the dominant tectonic stress orientations. The dyke complex formed near the brittle-ductile transition during opening of the Iapetus Ocean and is now exposed in the Scandinavian Caledonides. Distinct dyke morphologies related to different emplacement mechanisms has been recognized: 1) Brittle dykes that exhibit straight contacts with the host rock, sharp tips, en-echelon segments with bridges exhibiting angular fragments; 2) Brittle-ductile dykes that exhibit undulating contacts, rounded tips, ductile folding in the host rock and contemporaneous brittle and ductile features;3) Ductile “dykes” that exhibit rounded shapes and mingling between the soft ductile host rock and the intruding mafic magma. The brittle dykes exhibit two distinct orientations separated by c. 30◦ that are mutually cross-cutting, suggesting that the dyke swam did not consist of only vertical sheets perpendicular to regional extension, as expected in rifts. We were able to use the well-exposed host rock layers as markers to perform a kinematic restoration to quantify the average strain accommodating the emplacement of the dyke complex: it accommodated for >100% extension, but counter-intuitively it also accommodated for 27% crustal thickening. We infer that the magma influx rate was higher than the tectonic stretching rate, implying that magma was emplaced forcefully, as supported by field observations. Finally, our observations suggest that the fast emplacement of the dyke swarm triggered a rapid shallowing of the brittle-ductile transition, and lead to a considerable weakening of the crust. Our study can potentially have large implications significant for surface topography and seismicity in active rifts and volcanic areas around the world.

  Even though dykes are the main upward magma pathways through the Earth’s crust, the last two decades of research showed that significant parts of volcano plumbing systems consist of flat-lying igneous intrusions, namely sills. Sills form mainly in the layered parts of the crust, principally in volcanic deposits and sedimentary basins. Sills exhibit various shapes, strata-concordant, transgressive sheets, and saucer-shaped. Lateral magma flow through sill complexes and networks can reach several hundred kilometres. Sills represent intermediate feeder structures for volcanic eruptions, and therefore better understanding of sill emplacement and evolution is essential for assessing volcanic hazards. Sills emplaced in sedimentary basins also deeply affect petroleum systems and are essential components in exploring hydrocarbons. Finally, the massive and fast emplacement of sills resulting from LIPs in sedimentary basins triggered catastrophic climate changes and mass extinctions during Earth's history.

  Interpretation of seismic data has played a major role in recent advances in the studies of igneous sill complexes. Seismic modelling studies based on field analogues represent a promising tool to close the scale gap between observations from outcrops and seismic data and support seismic interpretation. Virtual outcrop models are commonly used to include highresolution geological structures in models of seismic-scale field analogues. However, realistic seismic modelling requires not only detailed structural input, but also well-constrained elastic properties and an adequate seismic modelling technique. Here, we present a seismic modelling study of oil-producing andesitic sills in the Neuquén Basin, Argentina, which implements all modelling elements at high accuracy by combining virtual outcrop models, well data and a 2(3)D filtering method. Our results indicate that the modelled seismic signatures of intrusive bodies observed in field analogues are characterized by frequencydependent interference and strong amplitude variations owing to highly variable elastic properties of both host rock and sills. We demonstrate that detailed waveform patterns observed in real seismic data can be linked to intrusive bodies below the traditionally assumed limit of resolution via realistic seismic modelling. This illustrates how an integrated modelling approach based on field analogues can aid seismic interpretation.

  The mid-Norwegian margin is regarded as an example of a volcanic-rifted margin, formed prior to and during, Paleogene breakup of the northeast Atlantic. The area is characterized by the presence of voluminous basaltic complexes such as extrusive lava and lava delta sequences, intrusive sills and dikes, and hydrothermal vent complexes. We have developed a detailed 3D seismic analysis of fluid-and gas-induced hydrothermal vent complexes in a 310 km2 area in the Møre Basin, offshore Norway. We find that formation of hydrothermal vent complexes is accommodated by deformation of the host rock when sills are emplaced. Fluids are generated by metamorphic reactions and pore-fluid expansion around sills and are focused around sill tips due to buoyancy. Hydrothermal vent complexes are associated with doming of the overlying strata, leading to the formation of draping mounds above the vent contemporary surface. The morphological characteristics of the upper part and the underlying feeder structure (conduit zone) are imaged and studied in 3D seismic data. Well data indicate that the complexes formed during the early Eocene, linking their formation to the time of the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum at c. 56 Ma. The well data further suggest that the hydrothermal vent complexes were active for a considerable time period, corresponding to a c. 100 m thick transition zone unit with primary Apectodinium augustum and redeposited very mature Cretaceous and Jurassic palynomorphs. The newly derived understanding of age, structure, and formation of hydrothermal vent complexes in the Møre Basin contributes to the general understanding of the igneous plumbing system in volcanic basins and their implications for the paleoclimate and petroleum systems.

  Igneous intrusions in sedimentary basins exhibit a great diversity of shapes from thin sheets (e.g. sills, cone sheets), to massive intrusions (e.g. laccoliths, plugs). Presently, none of the established models of magma emplacement have the capability to simulate this diversity because they account for either purely elastic or purely plastic or purely viscous host rocks, whereas natural rocks are complex elasto-plastic materials. In this study, we investigate the effects of elasto-plastic properties of host rock on magma emplacement using laboratory experiments made of dry granular materials of variable cohesion. Our results show how the deformation mechanism of the host rock controls the emplacement of magma: thin sheet sills form in high-cohesion materials, which dominantly deform by elastic bending, whereas massive intrusions such as punched laccoliths form in low-cohesion materials, which dominantly deform by shear failure. Our models also suggest that combined elastic/shear failure deformation modes likely control the emplacement of cone sheets. Our experiments are the first to spontaneously produce diverse, geologically relevant intrusion shapes. Our models show that accounting for the elasto-plastic behaviour of the host rock is essential to filling the gap between the established elastic and plastic models of magma emplacement, and so to reveal the dynamics of magma emplacement in the Earth's brittle crust.

  The emplacement of igneous intrusions into sedimentary basins mechanically deforms the host rocks and causes hydrocarbon maturation. Existing models of host-rock deformation are investigated using high-quality 3D seismic and industry well data in the western Møre Basin offshore mid-Norway. The models include synemplacement (e.g., elastic bending-related active uplift and volume reduction of metamorphic aureoles) and postemplacement (e.g., differential compaction) mechanisms. We use the seismic interpretations of five horizons in the Cretaceous-Paleogene sequence (Springar, Tang, and Tare Formations) to analyze the host rock deformation induced by the emplacement of the underlying saucer-shaped Tulipan sill. The results show that the sill, emplaced between 55.8 and 54.9 Ma, is responsible for the overlying dome structure observed in the seismic data. Isochron maps of the deformed sediments, as well as deformation of the younger postemplacement sediments, document a good match between the spatial distribution of the dome and the periphery of the sill. The thickness tt of the Tulipan is less than 100 m, whereas the amplitude ff of the overlying dome ranges between 30 and 70 m. Spectral decomposition maps highlight the distribution of fractures in the upper part of the dome. These fractures are observed in between hydrothermal vent complexes in the outer parts of the dome structure. The 3D seismic horizon interpretation and volume rendering visualization of the Tulipan sill reveal fingers and an overall saucer-shaped geometry. We conclude that a combination of different mechanisms of overburden deformation, including (1) elastic bending, (2) shear failure, and (3) differential compaction, is responsible for the synemplacement formation and the postemplacement modification of the observed dome structure in the Tulipan area.

  Structures of rifted continental margins are the finite result of active processes when continents rift apart. During the convergent stages of Wilson cycle, remnants of rifted margins may be incorporated into orogens, especially the magma-poor end-member. The magma-rich margins, however, are commonly lost in subduction due to low buoyancy. The understanding of magma-rich margins is therefore mostly based on drill holes and geophysical observations. In this contribution, we explore the temporal evolution and the ambient conditions of a magma-rich rifted margin preserved within the Scandinavian Caledonides. The Scandinavian Dyke Complex was emplaced in a sedimentary basin during the opening of the Iapetus Ocean 615 to 590 million years ago. The dyke complex now constitutes 70-90% of the area and is locally well-preserved despite the complex Caledonian history. Five field seasons in northern Sweden and Norway provide new observations from regional to microscopic scale about the structural geometry, relative timing, and development of the margin. Jadeite in clinopyroxene geothermobarometry, titanium in biotite geothermometry and garnet isopleth modeling show that the ambient pressure and temperature conditions were similar for the entire dyke complex at 0.25 to 0.45 GPa, with contact metamorphic temperatures up to c. 700◦C. Using a photomosaic of a large and well-exposed cliff face we used layers in the metasediments as markers to restore the host-rock back to the pre-dike configuration, allowing us to quantify the average strain accommodated by the dyke swarm. It accommodated for >100% extension and for 27% crustal thickening. From this we infer that the magma influx rate was higher than the tectonic stretching rate, implying that magma was emplaced in a forceful manner, which is also supported by field observations. In the northern part of the study area, high precision dating of magmatic zircon shows that significant partial melting of the sedimentary host-rock, at relatively shallow levels, occurred at 613 ± 1 Ma. This shows that the crust was molten already 6 Ma before the dyke swarm was emplaced at 606 ± 2 Ma. We propose that the locally pervasive partial melting occurred due to high geothermal gradient and introduction of mafic melts in the lower crust. These processes caused a rapid shallowing of the brittle-ductile transition, which thereby significantly reduced the strength of the crust.

  The northern part of the pre-Caledonian Iapetus margin, which now rests within nappes in the Scandinavian Caledonides, is generally characterized as a fossil magma-rich rifted margin. The margin developed in the late Ediacaran during the opening of the Iapetus Ocean. It was deformed and metamorphosed during the Caledonian orogeny, but large parts of the margin escaped the penetrative strain and regional metamorphism related to this event, and are now preserved in kilometer-scale boudins. The boudins preserve a several kilometer-thick sedimentary package mostly composed of siliciclastic and carbonaceous rocks. A key unit in the stratigraphy is a stromatolite-bearing dolomitic marble containing pure magnesite lenses as well as Cl-rich scapolite, both indicative of evaporite deposits. This unit can be found at several localities along the Scandinavian Caledonides. A recently described glaciogenic diamictite directly overlies the carbonates, which in turn is overlain by a > 1 km thick shallow marine sandstone succession, possibly marking the onset of rifting. The youngest detrital zircon from the sandstone unit is 698 Ma, providing a useful maximum deposition age. The sedimentary succession rests on top of a basement slice with top-W extensional shear indicators. The deformation has been dated to 637 Ma and corroborates the interpretation that Baltica and Laurentia was rifting at this time. The entire sedimentary succession is dissected by a dense network of mafic dikes, which has been dated to range from 596-608 Ma, providing a minimum estimate for the deposition of the sedimentary succession. This minimum age also rules out the Gaskiers glacial event to be responsible for the deposition of the diamictite. The emplacement of the dike swarm was short and intense and led to local partial melting of the host rocks. The rapid influx of magma exceeded the tectonic stretching rate, which together with their conjugate geometry allowed the dike emplacement to also cause a vertical thickening of the crust synchronous with extension. The diking event led to the break-up of Baltica and Laurentia in the Late Ediacaran after at least 30 million years of rifting and show that the magmatic event started late in the overall rifting history.

  Dyke emplacement mechanisms across the brittle-ductile transition Hans Jørgen Kjøll1, Olivier Galland2, Loic Labrousse3 & Torgeir Andersen1 1 Center for Earth Evolution and Dynamics (CEED), University of Oslo 2 Physics of Geological Processes, the Njord Center, Department of Geosciences, University of Oslo 3 Institut des Sciences de la Terre Paris, ISTeP, CNRS-INSU, Sorbonne Université Dyking is the main process of magma transport through the Earth’s lithosphere. Dykes are thin sheets exhibiting shapes similar to fractures, so that the main models of dyke emplacement assume that they form by mode I hydraulic fracturing following the σ1-σ2 plane. Because of the rapid strain rates accommodating dyking, it is assumed that dyke propagation and emplacement are only governed by brittle processes, even in the ductile crust. However, the contribution of ductile deformation in dyke emplacement has not been assessed. Here we report detailed and spectacular field observations from northern Sweden and Norway of a ~605 Ma old dyke complex emplaced near the brittle-ductile transition. The dyke complex formed during continental rifting and opening of the Iapetus Ocean, and is now exposed in the Scandinavian Caledonides. In northern Sweden, observations are made along a 1.5 km long continuously exposed cliff providing unique and exceptional overview images of the dyke complex. The detailed structural analysis of the dykes and of the structures related to their emplacement allows us to identify distinct dyke emplacement mechanisms, sub-divided into: 1) Brittle dykes that exhibit straight contacts with the host rock, sharp tips, en-echelon segments with either broken bridges or intact bridges between the segments. The dyke thicknesses follow a Weibull distribution, commonly applied to fracture mechanics; 2) Brittle-ductile dykes that exhibit ductile bridges with complex patterns. Both brittle-ductile and ductile-brittle features are observed, i.e. where ductile flow induced by inflating dykes overprint brittle structures associated with dyke emplacement and vice versa; 3) Ductile “dykes” that show mingling textures between the soft ductile host rock and the intruding mafic magma as well as irregular magmatic boudinage. The dykes exhibit two distinct orientations, and are mutually cross-cutting, suggesting that the dykes did not form as vertical sheets perpendicular to regional extension. Thanks to the well-exposed layering of the dykes’ host rock, we performed a kinematic restoration to quantify the strain induced by the dyke complex. As expected, the dyke complex accommodated >100% extension in agreement with the rifting. However, counter-intuitively it also accommodated 12% of crustal thickening, in agreement with local shortening structures near the dyke walls, showing the forceful mechanism of magma emplacement. Our observations underline the complexity of magma emplacement mechanisms near the brittle-ductile transition and show that dyke emplacement cannot be described as simple mode-I brittle fractures that are being passively filled and inflated by magma.

  Sills with a characteristic saucer shape are common features in many sedimentary basins worldwide. Previous models of sill emplacement usually assume that pure elastic bending of the overburden of growing sills control their evolution to saucer shape. However, field observations show that significant shear damage also accommodate sill emplacement. To which extent such damage plays an active role on sill emplacement or not is not understood. To address this, we study the condition for shear failure and the distribution of damage in the overburden of sills using the limit analysis software Optum G2. Through a parameter study, we investigate the effect of the length-to-depth ratio (L/D) of the sill, the cohesion of the host rock and the emplacement depth on the over-pressure within the sill at failure. The results show that the characteristic saucer shape is ubiquitously reproduced using this approach (Haug et al, 2017). The over-pressure required for shear failure scales linearly with the host cohesion and as a power-law of L/D. From these observations, we propose a scaling law for a new shear failure criterion in the overburden of a sill. We compare our scaling law to an analytical solution of hydrofractures, and show that tensile tip propagation is favored for small sills, but overburden shear failure may become favorable for large sills. From these results, we suggest that sills initially grow laterally by tensile propagation until reaching a critical L*, when the overburden fails in shear, leading to the emplacement of saucer-shaped sill’s inclined sheets.

  Seismic interpretation has been playing a key role in establishing the role of igneous sill complexes emplaced in organic-rich sediments on global climate change throughout geological history (e.g., Svensen et al. 2004, Aarnes et al. 2015): the heat brought by the sills to their organic-rich host leads to massive thermogenic generation of greenhouse gases (e.g., CO2, CH4), eventually catastrophically released to the atmosphere. Robust volume estimates of these greenhouse gases rely on robust estimates of magma volumes of the sill complexes, which require confident mapping of subsurface sill intrusions. Large sills are easy to map in seismic data, because they create strong property contrasts, which cause high amplitude reflections. However, igneous sills vary strongly in thickness and up to 88 percent of the sills may be missing in the interpretation, since their thickness is below the seismic resolution limit (Schofield et al. 2015). In this presentation, we present seismic modelling study designed to characterize typical seismic signatures (splitting, stepping, braided reflections) of thin intrusions, and to indicate potential ways to infer the shapes of thin intrusions in the seismic interpretation. Due to their anomalously high vp/vs ratio, intrusions cause a characteristic amplitude-vs-offset (AVO) response with high AVO intercept and gradient. Thus, we will highlight the great potential of using seismic pre-stack and offset data for the interpretation of thin intrusions. Our results indicate how seismic interpretation and thereby volume estimates of sill complexes can be significantly improved using data of relevant quality.

  Igneous intrusions in the upper brittle crust exhibit diverse shapes ranging from thin sheets (dykes, sills, cone sheets), to thick, massive intrusions (laccoliths, plutons, plugs). Presently, none of the established models of magma emplacement have the capability to simulate this diversity because they account for end member rheology of the host rocks (elastic, viscous or plastic), whereas natural rocks are complex elasto-plastic materials. We investigated the effects of host rock rheology on magma emplacement using scaled laboratory models. The model rocks were dry Coulomb granular materials of variable strength (cohesion). We show that strong (high-cohesion) host rock, results in the emplacement of thin, sheet intrusions (sills, cone sheets). Conversely, weak (low-cohesion) host rock results in the emplacement of massive intrusions (laccoliths, plugs). We integrate our laboratory results with numerical simulations to constrain the host rock deformation mechanism that accommodates magma emplacement in the experiments. Our results show how both sills and laccoliths result from initial thin sills that spread horizontally until triggering shear failure of the overburden at a critical radius. Two scenarios can then happen: (1) the overburden is cohesive enough and allows space opening in the sub-surface to accommodate viscous magma inflow along the failure planes, so sills evolve as sheets (saucer shape or cone sheets), or (2) the overburden is not cohesive enough and does not allow sub-surface space opening to accommodate viscous magma inflow along the failure planes, so the sill inflates and lifts up the overburden along shear zones to form a massive laccolith.

Vis sammendrag

  The southwestern part of the Dolomites in Northern Italy has undergone a short-lived Ladinian (Middle Triassic) tectono-magmatic event, forming a series of significant magmatic features. These intrusive bodies deformed and metamorphosed the Permo-Triassic carbonate sedimentary framework. In this study we focus on the tectonomagmatic evolution of the shallow shoshonitic Monzoni Intrusive Complex of this Ladinian event (ca 237 Ma), covering an area of 20 km^2. This NW-SE elongated intrusive structure (5 km length) shows an orogenic magmatic affinity which is in contrast to the tectonic regime at the time of intrusion. Strain analysis shows anorogenic transtensional displacement in accordance with the ENE-WSW extensional pattern in the central Dolomites during the Ladinian. Field interpretations led to a detailed description of the regional stratigraphic sequence and the structural features of the study area. However, the geodynamic context of this magmatism and the influence of the inherited strike-slip fault on the intrusion, are still in question. To better understand the specific natural prototype and the general mechanisms of magma emplacement in tectonically active areas, we performed analogue experiments defined by, but not limited to, first order field observations. We have conducted a systematic series of experiments in different tectonic regimes (static conditions, strike-slip, transtension). We varied the ratio of viscous to brittle stresses between magma and country rock, by injecting Newtonian fluids both of high and low viscosity (i.e. silicone oil/vegetable oil) into granular materials of varying cohesion (sand, silica flour, glass beads). The evolving surface and side view of the experiments were monitored by photogrammetric techniques for strain analyses and topographic evolution. In our case, the combination of the results from field and analogue experiments brings new insights regarding the tectonic regime, the geometry of the intrusive body, and the deformational pattern of the evolving system.
