Abstract

Jurassic granite from Geochang was analysed with respect to the characteristics of the rock cleavage. The multicriteria evaluation for the six directions of rock cleavages was performed using the microcrack spacing-related parameters derived from the enlarged photomicrographs (${\times}6.7$) of the thin section and the spacing-cumulative frequency diagrams. The results of analysis for the representative values of these spacing parameters with respect to the rock cleavage are summarized as follows. First, the analysis for deriving the main parameter indicating the order of arrangement among six diagrams was performed. The values of five parameters with respect to six directions of the rock cleavages were arranged in increasing or decreasing order for the above analysis. The decreasing order of the values of main parameter(mean spacing-median spacing, $S_{mean}-S_{median}$) and mean spacing are consistent with the order of H1, H2, G1, G2, R1 and R2 directions. These sequential arrangements of six directions of the rock cleavages can provide a basis for those of the six diagrams related to spacing. Second, the nine correlation charts between the above main parameter and various parameters were arranged in decreasing order of correlation coefficient ($R^2$). These related charts shows a high correlation of power-law function in common. The values of mean spacing, density (${\rho}$) and length of line oa are directly proportional to the value of main parameter, while the values of constant (a), exponent (${\lambda}$), spacing frequency (N), length of line oa', slope of exponential straight line (${\theta}$) and total length ($1mm{\geq}$) are inverse proportional. Third, the results of correlation analysis between the values of parameters for three planes and those for three rock cleavages are as follows. The values of frequency, total spacing, constant, exponent, slope and length of line oa' for three planes and three rock cleavages show an order of R' < G' < H' and H < G < R, respectively. On the other hand, the values of mean spacing, (mean spacing-median spacing), density and length of line oa show an order of H' < G' < R' and R < G < H, respectively. The correlation of the mutually reverse order of the values of parameters between three planes and three rock cleavages can be drawn. This type of correlation analysis is useful for discriminating three quarrying planes.

거창지역의 쥬라기 화강암에 대하여 결의 특성에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. 박편의 확대사진(${\times}6.7$) 및 간격-누적빈도 도표에서 도출한 미세균열의 간격과 관련된 파라미터를 통하여 여섯 방향의 결에 대한 다기준 평가를 실시하였다. 결에 대한 이들 간격의 파라미터의 대표 값에 대한 분석 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째로, 여섯 도표 사이의 배열순을 지시하는 주요 파라미터의 도출을 위한 분석을 수행하였다. 위의 분석을 위하여 여섯 방향의 결에 대한 5개 파라미터의 값에 대하여 증가 또는 감소하는 순으로 배열하였다. 주요 파라미터(평균 간격-중앙 간격, $S_{mean}-S_{median}$) 및 평균 간격의 값이 감소하는 순은 H1, H2, G1, G2, R1 그리고 R2 방향의 순과 상호 부합한다. 여섯 방향의 결의 이러한 순차적인 배열은 간격과 관련된 여섯 도표의 순차적인 배열에 대한 근거를 제공할 수 있다. 둘째로, 위의 주요 파라미터 그리고 다양한 파라미터 사이의 9개 상관도를 상관계수($R^2$)가 감소하는 순으로 배열하였다. 이들 관련도는 공통적으로 멱법칙함수의 높은 상관성을 보여 준다. 평균 간격, 밀도 및 선 oa의 길이의 값은 주요 파라미터의 값과 정비례하지만, 반면에 상수(a), 지수(${\lambda}$), 간격의 빈도수(N), 선 oa'의 길이, 지수 직선의 기울기(${\theta}$) 및 총 길이($1mm{\geq}$)는 반비례한다. 셋째로, 3개 면에 대한 파라미터의 값 그리고 3개 결에 대한 파라미터의 값 사이의 상관성 분석의 결과는 다음과 같다. 3개 면 및 3개 결에 대한 빈도수, 총 간격, 상수, 지수, 기울기, 선 oa' 길이의 값은 R' < G' < H' 및 H < G < R의 순을 각각 보여 준다. 반면에, 3개 면 및 3개 결에 대한 평균 간격, (평균 간격 - 중앙 간격), 밀도 및 선 oa의 길이의 값은 H' < G' < R' 및 R < G < H의 순을 각각 보여 준다. 3개 결 및 3개 면 사이의 파라미터의 값의 상호 역순의 상관성이 도출될 수 있다. 이러한 유형의 상관성 분석은 3개 채석면의 판별에 유용하다.
