(a) Digitized map of the fracture network at Ras ir Raheb, Malta, with iron oxide precipitates shown as red dashed lines. A photo of a clear front of iron oxide precipitates is included. (b) The branch intensity map indicates higher density in complex zones. (c) Connecting node frequency map of the locality shows that zones with high branch intensity generally tend to coincide with high connecting node frequency.
