Shear Zones is a tectonic structure defined as a tabular volume of rock in which deformation is intensely localized and dominated by shear strain relative to the surrounding rocks, commonly formed under ductile to brittle–ductile conditions in the mid- to lower crust and upper mantle and representing the deep counterpart or continuation of brittle fault zones.
