Potassium-Argon (K-Ar) dating for fault gouge samples in the Tono Geoscience Center

Tamura, Hajimu*; Shibata, Kenji*; Takahashi, Naoya; Niwa, Masakazu

It is essential to understand the activity of faults in and around a target area to assess the long-term geosphere stability for geological isolation. Potassium-Argon (K-Ar) dating of fault gouge has been conducted in Tono Geoscience Center as one of the dating technique for faulting. This report includes methods for sample preparation, analyses, and age calculation on the K-Ar dating. This can contribute to an evaluation of calculated K-Ar ages.
