الوصف: Structural and K–Ar dating studies of gouge in N–S, NNE and E–W-trending faults in four locations in the Sydney–Hunter region are reported. The fault zones are manifest as joint swarms and highly brecciated zones containing gouge with authigenic illite produced as a result of fluid infiltration. Strike-slip movement accompanied by minor dip-slip, normal movement occurred on the NNE faults, with dip slip on N–S and E–W-trending faults. In this study, gouge from a NE-trending, steep, SE-dipping fault showing dip-slip movement at Cut 10, on the Hunter Expressway and from an E–W-trending, steep south-dipping, normal fault at the Westside Open Cut, Lake Macquarie have been analysed. K–Ar dating of illite and illite–smectite in fractions extracted from fault gouges in areas unaffected by a thermal overprint reveals ages varying from 166 to 119 Ma for the
