  • Neotectonics and Quaternary Geology of the Hunter Mountain Fault Zone and Saline Valley Region, Southeastern California
    Geomorphology 42 (2002) 255–278 www.elsevier.com/locate/geomorph Neotectonics and Quaternary geology of the Hunter Mountain fault zone and Saline Valley region, southeastern California John A. Oswald *, Steven G. Wesnousky Center for Neotectonic Studies, Department of Geological Sciences, University of Nevada, Reno, Nevada 89557, USA Received 14 May 1999; received in revised form 11 May 2001; accepted 14 May 2001 Abstract The Hunter Mountain fault zone strikes northwesterly, is right-lateral strike-slip, and kinematically links the northern Panamint Valley fault zone to the southern Saline Valley fault zone. The most recent displacement of the fault is recorded in the offset of Holocene deposits along the entire length of the fault zone. Right-lateral offsets of drainage channels within Grapevine Canyon reach up to 50 to 60 m. Initial incision of the offset channels is interpreted on the basis of geomorphic and climatic considerations to have occurred approximately 15 ka. The 50 to 60 m of offset during 15 ka corresponds to a right-lateral fault slip rate of 3.3–4.0 mm/year within Grapevine Canyon. Further to the north along the Nelson Range front, the fault is composed of two sub-parallel fault strands and the fault begins to show an increased normal component of motion. A channel margin that is incised into a Holocene surface that is between 10 and 128 ka in age is offset 16–20 m, which yields a broad minimum bound on the lateral slip rate of 0.125–2.0 mm/year. The best preserved single-event displacements recorded in Holocene deposits range from 1.5 to 2.5 m.
