The close interplay between the earthquake cycle and fluid migration in fault zones is well known [Cox, 2002; Faulkner and Armitage, 2013; Nur and Booker, 1972; Sibson, 1987]. During a slip event on one master fault, preexisting and/or newly created fractures perpendicular to the instantaneous extension direction will be sites of a sudden, significant decrease in fluid pressure. The coseismic fracture network can then act in two ways. It may simply drive fluids into the extension fractures, lasting until internal fluid pressures reestablish equilibrium with the environmental hydrostatic pressures typical of upper crustal levels (such as the suction pump mechanism or dilatancy‐diffusion effects [Nur and Booker, 1972]). Alternatively, if the coseismic fracture damage breached a low‐permeability seal around an overpressured reservoir, it may promote large coseismic flux of previously trapped high‐pressure fluids (the “fault valving” process, Sibson [1990]). Subsequent redistribution of pore pressure as a direct result of fluid flow can reduce fault strength and trigger earthquakes [Miller et al., 2004; Nur and Booker, 1972]. Under certain conditions, these mechanisms can result in the precipitation of hydrothermal minerals triggered by processes such as boiling, mixing with cold meteoric waters, and/or hydration reactions [Coombs, 1993; Sibson, 1987; Weatherley and Henley, 2013]. Such dynamically induced fluid flow is thought to Fluid Inclusion Evidence of Coseismic Fluid Flow Induced by Dynamic Rupture
