日本の本州中部山北地域の島弧―島弧衝突帯における深層掘削

We carried out borehole drilling in the Yamakita area near an active fault of the arc-arc collision zone in the western part of Kanagawa Prefecture. Slime and core samples were obtained. The borehole geology was established by examined them using petrographic analyses and geophysical logging data. We found that the southwestern slope of Mt. Maruyama was down-faulted from the northern slope of the mountain by an unknown fault. After drilling was completed, the borehole was established as a Hi-net seismic observation station. Data are collected by the Hi-net observation system and made available through the INTERNET
