울산광역시 울주군 삼남면 가천리와 상천리 일원에 발달하는 양산단층대 중남부의 발달특성과 제4기단층을 기재한다. 이 지역에는 중생대 백악기의 퇴적암과 화강암의 경계부 근처에 양산단층대의 주단층대와 부단층대로 확인되는 대규모의 단층파쇄대가 북북동-서남서 내지 남-북의 주향에 거의 수직으로 발달하고 있다. 단층조선은 수평에 가까우며 단층대내의 구조에 의하면, 주로 우향의 주향이동운동이 우세하다. 한편, 상천리와 가천리에는 이들 기반암과 제4기의 하성 사력층의 경계부 부근에서 제4기단층이 2조 발달하고 있다. 이들은 가천 제1단층과 가천 제2단층으로 기존의 양산단층대 일부가 제4기에 재활동한 것으로, 북북동 방향의 주향에 동측으로 고각의 경사를 보인다 단층조선은 거의 수평이며, 제4기 역들이 단층끌림에 의해 배열된 상태나 단층엽리내의 구조에 의하면 우향의 주향이동성운동이 우세하다.

The paleoseismological importance of the Yangsan fault zone was examined by historical earthquake data, aerial photograph, and trench survey of the area. Occurrences of great earthquakes during the historical time indicate that the Yangsan and/or Ulsan fault have been active during the late Quaternary and generated historical events. Geomorphological evidences of the recent fault activity are clearly shown both in the northern segment (Yugye-ri, Tosung-ri and Naengsu-ri areas) and in the southern segment (Eonyang to Tongdosa areas) of the Yangsan fault. The main Yangsan fault is characterized by fault gouges and NNE-SSW lineaments. The reverse faulting in the Yugye-ri area generated about three-mater displacement of the lower terrace deposits. On the other hand, a major strike-slip movement with a minor component of 5-12 m vertical displacement was identified by the offset of the higher terrace surface in the Eonyang area.

한반도 남동부 경상분지에 위치한 양산단층의 지전기학적 구조를 밝히기 위하여 경주시 이조리와 울산시 서하리, 양산시 삼감리와 회산리 사이에서 전기비저항 탐사를 수행하였다. 단층파쇄대는 낮은 전기비저항값을 가지며 단층파쇄대에 분포하는 풍화대는 남쪽으로 향할수록 두꺼워지는 것으로 나타났다. 풍화대의 깊이는 서하리와 회산리에서 약 100 m 이며 다른 지역에서는 약 50-70 m 정도이다. 단층파쇄대에 위치하는 풍화대의 전기비저항값은 회산리에서 얻어진 약 10 Ωm의 매우 낮은 값을 제외하고는 약 40-300 Ωm 정도이다. 연구지역 내에서는 풍화대 하부에 위치하는 기반암의 깊이가 양산단층을 따라 남쪽으로 향할수록 깊어지는 특징적인 변화 양상을 갖는 것으로 보인다. 수평탐사 결과는 양산단층에 가까워질수록 겉보기 비저항값이 감소함을 보여준다

To date, several studies have been carried out to partially compare and analyze the resistivity values within the Yangsan fault zone through the electrical resistivity survey of the exposed fault zone. However, it is not easy to directly observe a large scaled fault like Yangsan fault that has been weathered, especially due to the weathering of the fault core. This study aimed to reveal the characteristics of location, geometry, the fault core zone as well as underground distribution of the associated fault damage zone, based on the results of electrical resistivity and micro-topographic surveys as well as field geology survey in the southern Yangsan fault zone (Eonyang area). The resistivity anomaly zones developed in the NNE to NE direction were confirmed by the electrical resistivity survey. According to the electrical resistivity, micro-topographic, and field geologic surveys, the Yangsan fault has been formed by three to five fault cores, fault damage zones and/or fractured zones.

지금까지 양산단층에 대한 운동학적 해석은 단지 지질분포 특성의 차이를 근거로 단순 우수주향이동으로 해석해왔다. 그러나 일반적으로 대규모 단층들은 단계적으로 서로 다른 운동체계에서 복합적인 발달과정을 거치면서 현재의 모습으로 보인다. 따라서 양산단층의 주변 지질구조와 운동학적 관계를 알아보기 위하여 양산단층 주변의 지질분포, 지질구조, 단층주변의 소단층들에 대한 특성을 분석하였다. 양산단층 주변 퇴적암의 층리면 자세는 양산단 층이 동일한 사건의 주향이동으로 형성된 단층예인의 특성이 아니라 서로 다른 응력축의 지배를 받았거나 서로 다른 크기의 운동을 받았음을 암시하고 있다. 또한 단층의 주향을 따라 단층대 폭의 변화를 살펴본 결과 크게 5개의 주기를 가지면서 변화되고 각각의 주기는 약 25-30 km 로 규칙적으로 나타난다. 또한 단층조선이 발달된 소단층의 분석결과들은 양산단층이 한번의 운동으로 발달한 것이 아니라 매우 복잡하고 다양한 사건들을 겪은 다중 변형의 산물임을 지시하고 있다.

The paleoseismological study in Korea has begun along the Yangsan fault zone (YFZ) and Ulsan fault zone (UFZ) since 1994. Some evidences related to late Quaternary movement are found at only some part of the YFZ, such as Pyonghae, Yuge, and Eonyang-Tongdosa areas. However, it is found along the most of the UFZ except the northen and southern ends of the fault. The dominant time span of faulting events along the YFZ and UFZ are quite different, and 500 ka to 200 ka and 300 ka to recent time, respectively. The dominant faulting senses of the YFZ and UFZ are right-lateral strike slip and reverse, respectively. These senses correspond well with the focal mechanism of recent occurring earthquakes along these two fault zones. If we evaluate the intensity of the activity of the YFZ from the average slip rate, which is 0.1~0.04 m/ka, it is comparable with the faults of higher C class in Japan. The slip rate of UFZ, which is 0.2~0.06 m/ka, is comparable with the faults of lower B to higher C class. Based on the relationship between maximum displacement and magnitude, the maximum earthquake magnitude is evaluated to be 6.8 and 7.0 in the YFZ and UFZ, respectively. An intensive studies are needed to clarify the problems such as segmentation of faults, return period, and geological evidences related to historical earthquakes.

The study area is a tunnelling section passing through the Yangsan Fault zone. Kyungbu express highway and national road 35 are located above the tunnel. Previous study showed that fault gouge and fault breccia were widely distributed in the tunnelling section with a maximum width of 100 m. From the present study, it is found that sedimentary rocks consisting mainly of shale are distributed at the eastern block of the Yangsan Fault and these rocks are not subject to mechanical fracturing and hydrothermal alteration. On the other hand, dacitic tuff distributed at the western block of the Yangsan Fault is largely affected by mechanical fracturing and hydrothermal alteration. The large fault zone of $50{\sim}130m$ width was formed by complex processes of mechanical fracturing and hydrothermal alterations such as chloritization, sericitization, and kaolinization. Based on the characteristics of mechanical fracturing and hydrothermal alterations, the Yangsan fault zone in the study area is geotechnically classified as four zones: unaltered zone, altered zone, altered fractured zone, and fault gouge zone. These zones show different degrees and aspects in mechanical fracturing and hydrothermal alterations, resulting in different engineering properties.

To clarify the geological structure of Yangsan fault around Sangchon-ri in the southern part of Kyungsang Basin the resistivity (dipole-dipole profiling) and VLF surveys carried out on the four profiles, crossing the inferred trace of the fault. The resistivity contrast across the fault is clearly shown on the profiles: higher resistivity and lower resistivity on the east and west, respectively. It is most likely from the uplift of the granitic bedrock on the east park due to the strike-fault raulting with vertical movement. The zero-crossing points of VLF anomalies, associated with near-surface fracture zone, are found to well correlate with the resistivity boundaries from the dipole-dipole profiling. Consequently, southern segment of Yangsan fault (at Sangchon-ri area) is interpreted to be vertically developed strike-slip fault with a difference more than 10m depth of basement rock at both sides.
