• We study deformation structures in a serpentinite-bearing normal shear zone in the Ronda peridotites, southern Spain. The fault zone displays a structural zoning composed by four domains showing similar strain gradients. Deformation is partitioned into distributed deformation expressed by foliated serpentinites and S-C structures and localized deformation expressed by R and P shear planes at lower and upper portions, respectively, of each domain. Such a structural zoning suggests that stable shear creep alternates with intermittent seismogenic events during the fault activity.
