hydrofracturing
hydrofracturing, vbl. n. (ˌhaɪdrəʊˈfræktjʊərɪŋ) [f. hydro- + fracturing vbl. n.] The process of fracturing subterranean rock by the injection of water into existing fissures at high pressure, usu. in order to facilitate the passage of some fluid (esp. oil or water) through an otherwise impermeable b...

Several episodes of oil generation, migration and fluid mixing along with hydrofracturing are the cause of the uranium mineralization. Changes in the stress regime probably favoured radial hydrofracturing around the bitumen nodules as well as the subsequent development of a somewhat pervasive wikipedia.org

Breccia
Hydrothermal breccias are usually formed by hydrofracturing of rocks by highly pressured hydrothermal fluids. On their journey, high-pressure fluids crack rock by hydrofracturing, forming an angular in situ breccia. wikipedia.org
