International audience Exhumed faults in granitoids along the Lanterman Fault-Rennick Graben Fault system (northern Victoria Land, Antarctica) show superposed ductile to brittle deformation and pervasive hydrothermal fluid-rock interaction. These processes triggered multiple brittle slip events prod...
