: How do we know it's deformation? Couldn't it be geochemical alteration, for example?

because it says nothing about "geochemical" in the source document.

"altération" can be translated as "alteration":
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altération_(géologie)
n géologie, l'altération est l'ensemble des modifications des propriétés physico-chimiques des minéraux, et donc des roches, par les agents atmosphériques (altération météorique), par les eaux souterraines (altération de subsurface) et les eaux thermales (altération hydrothermale). Elle dépend en particulier du climat, de la température des eaux, de la nature des roches et de leur degré de fracturation
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_alteration
Mineral alteration refers to the various natural processes that alter a mineral's chemical composition or crystallography. [1]
Mineral alteration is essentially governed by the laws of thermodynamics related to energy conservation, relevant to environmental conditions, often in presence of catalysts, the most common and influential being water (H2O).
For the "frange" part, it can be translated as "fringe", specifically when referring to the "frange capillaire/capillary fringe", which is a layer.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary_fringe
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frange_capillaire
Here is an example of the use of "atered fringe":
https://books.google.ca/books?id=W7hP_ef5QkwC&pg=PA1099&lpg=...
"developed over the sericite-pyrite altered fringe"
Another example:
Sampling was along a 1-km transect perpendicular to the alteration zones extending from the potassically altered core to the propylitically altered fringe of the system.

Also see the following refereces to "alteration zone" or "zone of alteration" in the field of geology:
See examples in this document:
https://www.slideshare.net/laurarojasperea/atlas-alteration-...
Blanket-like carbonate- bearing ALTERATION ZONES in the upper part of some geothermal/epithermal systems may reflect the condensation of gases (CO2) from deeper boiling zones.
and as the upper or outer ALTERATION ZONES associated with intrusion- related skarn/sulphide replacement bodies.
Albite alteration is generally distributed along fracture and vein envelopes, typically becoming more pervasive toward the centre of the ZONE OF ALTERATION, where it may form a dense massive rock.
