Optical image of the deformed dry sample. a Image of the entire sample (cross-polarized light). The compression direction (σ1) is shown by an arrow. Cataclastic flow is localized, especially at the bottom of the sample. Rectangles denote the locations for enlarged images (b) and (c). b Fractured area (plane-polarized light). c Strain-localized areas (plane-polarized light)
