Dissipative structures of rock-and ore-forming systems in faults

The dissipative structure is an ordered structure. When a system is far from reaching equilibrium in the condition of non-equilibrium and exchanges some energy and material with the surroundings, this structure will be formed and preserved. Starting with the analysis of practical data, we attempt to use this theory to discuss the tectono-geochemical problems of some rock and ore-forming systems in faults.
