Improvement of the investigation techniques to identify active faults is important for the implementation of geological disposal projects from the viewpoint of avoiding locations where permeability increases due to fault displacement. Generally, the existence of active faults is confirmed by aerial photography interpretation of fault displacement topography, which is a topographical trace of fault movement, and on-site geological surveys. However, the investigation method for cases where the topographical traces are unclear is not sufficiently developed. Therefore, to improve existing topographical methods, this study deciphered lineaments up to the rank of poorly defined features, which are almost neglected in general active fault research. The investigation area is one of the geodetic strain concentration zone, called the southern Kyushu shear zone, where the seismogenic faults of the 1997 Kagoshima northwest earthquakes are concealed. We conducted aerial photography interpretation of 62 sheets of 1/25,000 topographic maps, and obtained 1,327 lineaments. Distribution density, direction and length of lineaments were also investigated with topographic and geologic information. As a result, it was clarified that the east-west lineaments in the south Kyushu shear zone predominate in the western part, and the lineaments are densely distributed in the aftershock distribution area of the Kagoshima northwest earthquake. Along with these results, we have compiled a catalog of typical 13 lineaments based on combinations of clarity, direction, length and geomorphic characters of lineaments.

The Nuclear Regulation Authority instructed to develop a further additional research plan regarding the crushed zones on the Monju site against the JAEA on September 25. The JAEA developed a research plan in response to this instruction, and, the stripping investigation with expansion of the area, the additional detailed geographical and geological surveys around the mountains/terrace boundary, and the marine seismic surveys in the coastal waters, were conducted. The fracture zones were grouped into 2 systems called $$alpha$$-system and $$beta$$-system in the on-site investigation. We examined the cross-cutting relationships and displacements of the fracture zones and confirmed that the $$alpha$$-system was formed after the $$beta$$-system. From the investigation results so far, similar to the results of the compilation report of April 31, 2010, no clear evidence was observed to support that on-site crushed zones are active faults.

Activity evaluation of crush zones encountered in basement rock is an issue of the seismic safety assessment of nuclear plant and geological isolation of radioactive wastes. The selection of crush zone of which has been evaluated should be defined as the latest one by means of turn determination of crush zone activity based on stratigraphic or structural geological method. A lesson from granitic basement rock (Kojaku granite) holding the fast breeder reactor "Monju" is presented. The Kojaku Granite form the oval Tsuruga peninsula (ca. 8km in width) on the southeastern coast of the Sea of Japan and the age is 68.5 plus/minus 0.7Ma (Zircon U-Pb age).1. Stratigraphy-oriented turn determination of crush zone activity. (1.1) Turn determination using cover sediments. (1.2) Turn determination using dyke, mineral and clay vein. 2. Structural-oriented turn determination of crush zone activity.

Directional statistics of lineaments; A Trial at the shear zone in southern Kyushu

no journal, , 

We tried an objective expression of directional distribution of lineaments utilizing the directional statistics for the high interpretability. Directional statistics of lineaments at the shear zone in southern Kyushu indicate that the length weighted directional distribution of lineaments are decomposed into five von Mises distributions. An objective extraction of the East-West lineament concentration ereas was concordant with qualitative understanding by means of rule of thumb, judgement at a glance or rose-diagram.
