Analysis of fracture system in a stone quarry mine is a critical importance in assessing the recoverable amounts of building stones as well as in establishing the systematic and efficient development plan. Rock formation comprising vein structure, degree of weathering, and compositon of minerals, is a critical factor of estimating the stone quality. The aim of this study is to provide desirable informations about both fracture pattern and rock formation by using Televiewer and Color-corescanner. Televiewer measurement were conducted at 7 boreholes in the gneiss quarry mine, Hadong, Kyeongsangnamdo province and the corresponding cores were scanned using Color-corescanner at the same place. In Televiewer images, all kinds of fractures were clearly observed and a better discrimination of stone quality can be identified. Meanwhile, the core images with high resolution (max. 20 pixels/mm) provided detailed informations on rock formation such as features of particles and fissures that can be nearly undetected by Televiewer.

Fracture detection has always been very attractive to the log, because it is important in many of our prospecting activities, e.g. in understanding the underground rock formation and also the fluid flow as a high permeability path. This paper demonstrates the use of high resolution borehole acoustic scanner for the detection of fractures. The tool, known as Televiewer, is the first acoustic borehole imaging system to use a focussed beam. The acoustic beams generated by a single transducer are sent toward the borehole wall, scanning the wall in a tight helix as the tool moves along the borehole. The amplitudes and travel times of the reflected signals are then measured, which produces the corresponding images. The highly resolved amplitude image allows to recognize various size of fractures and in addition to derive the rock strength from the image. Meanwhile, the travel time image itself can be directly converted to a precise caliper image, providing detailed information of deviations of the borehole shape. It also allows correction of and explanations for amplitude variations. Field measurements were carried Out at the Cheongyang study sites in Korea to illustrate the efficiency of the televiewer log.

When constructing subsurface structures and drilling wells, the precise hydraulic parameters must be obtained for operating safety and for developing enough quantity of groundwater, respectively. In this study we conducted water injection test at different depths on six boreholes drilled in the granite of Mt. Geumjeong. Hydraulic conductivity was calculated using Moye and Hvorslev methods. The relation between hydraulic conductivity and fracture frequency data obtained from acoustic televiewer and core log was analyzed. From the result, though the correlation coefficient between the hydraulic conductivity and the fracture frequency from acoustic televiewer data is higher than that between the hydraulic conductivity and the fracture frequency from core log data on most of the test holes, the correlation coefficient between the hydraulic conductivity and the fracture frequency from the televiewer data is lower than 0.5. This suggests that the hydraulic conductivity of granite in the study area is influenced not only by the fracture frequency but also by various factors of fracture network such as fracture aperture and length, interconnectivity of fractures, fracture orientation and angle, filling material and so on.

Recently, Televiewer(Borehole Acoustic Scanner(Televiewer)) has come to be widely used specially for the general engineering construction design. The Televiewer tool using a focussed acoustic beam is to detect the amplitude and traveltime of each reflected acoustic signal at the wall, resulting in the amplitude- and traveltime image respectively. Fractures can be well detected, because they easily scatter the acoustic energy due to the highly narrow beam. In addition, the drilling work will rough the borehole wall so that the acoustic energy can be scattered simply due to the roughness of the wall. Thus, the amplitude level can be directed associated with the elastic properties(impedance) and the hardness of the rock as well. Meanwhile, the traveltime image provides an information about the borehole shape and can be converted to a high precision 3D caliper log(max. 288 arms). In this paper, based on the high resolution of Televiewer images, general evaluation methods are illustrated to derive very reliable rock parameters.

As a basic study of characterizing fracture condition in bore hole, conventional geophysical well log data consisting of sonic, gamma-gamma and resistivity logs were compared with geological core log and acousic televiewer log in limestone geology. Discontinuities shown on the acoustic televiewer log and the core log show fairly good correlation. The conventional Geophysical log is also shown to bi effective in locating discontinities in limestone geology; sonic log shows the best result and resistivity shows the worst. Particularly, the combination method of density and sonic logs is shown to be the most effective in delineating discontinuities.

그라우팅은 지반의 공학적인 강도증가를 통한 지지력 향상 및 암반의 투수성 저감을 통해 지하수 유동을 억제하기 위하여 대규모 토목공사 현장의 균열암반 및 댐 또는 제방 등의 지역에서 많이 시행되고 있다. 본 연구는 균열암반지역에서 그라우팅 효과 확인을 위하여 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트(OPC)와 마이크로 시멘트(MC)를 사용하여 그라우팅을 수행하였으며, 그라우팅 전후에 물리검층(시추공영상촬영, 초음파 텔레뷰어검층)을 이용하여 그라우팅 효과 정도를 파악하였다. 연구지역은 경상북도 영주시 평은면 지역으로, 지질은 선캠브리아기 안구상편마암에 시대미상의 흑운모 화강암이 관입을 하였고, 이를 제4기의 충적층이 부정합으로 피복되어 있다. 그라우팅은 일반구간과 단층대구간으로 구분하여 실시하였으며, 두 구간의 이격거리는 서로의 간섭을 피하기 위해 약 40m 간격으로 선정하였다. 주입재(OPC, MC)는 5개의 주입공에서 triangle 방향으로 주입하였으며, 주입정도를 확인하기 위하여 각 구간에 2공씩 확인시추를 하였다. 두 개의 site중 일반구간의 보통 포틀랜드시멘트 주입결과 평균주입량은 48.2kg/공이며 주입 1m당으로 환산하면 Lugeon값 10미만의 지층에서는 1.62kg/m이며, 마이크로시멘트의 평균주입량은 49.6kg/공이며 주입 1m당으로 환산하면 Lugeon값 10미만의 지층에서는 3.86kg/m로 나타났다. 단층대 구간에서는 보통 포틀랜드시멘트의 평균주입량이 40.0kg/공이며, 1m당으로 환산하면 Lugeon값 10미만의 지층에서는 2.75kg/m이며, 마이크로 시멘트는 평균주입량이 56.5kg/공, 주입 1m당으로 환산하면 Lugeon값 10미만의 지층에서는 3.15kg/m로 나타났다. 마이크로시멘트의 주입압은 보통 포틀랜드시멘트에 비해 상대적으로 낮았으며, 그라우팅 개선효과 역시 상대적으로 양호한 것으로 나타났다. 그라우팅 효과확인을 위한 물리검층의 초음파텔레뷰어 해석결과 상대암반강도는 주입전 $250{\sim}750\;kgf/cm^2$, 주입후는 $400{\sim}800\;kgf/cm^2$으로 그라우팅에 의한 암반강도의 상승을 확인할 수 있었고, 시추공영상촬영 분석에서는 시추코어만으로 얻기 힘든 시멘트 충진구간을 직접 확인할 수 있었다. 초음파텔레뷰어의 경우 파쇄대의 분포 및 암반강도 측정을 통한 그라우팅 파악은 가능하였으나 파쇄대 충진물을 확인할 수가 없는 단점이 있었고 이를 시추공영상촬영을 통해 보완할 수 있었다. 다만 물리검층의 경우 그라우팅에 의한 공의 손실로 동일공에 의한 반복 조사가 아닌 경우가 대부분이어서 그라우팅 효과에 대한 정확한 비교가 어려웠으며 추후 이를 보완하기 위한 계속적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Groundwater flow in a fractured rock mass is related to the geometric characteristics of the fracture system. The objective of this study aims to analyze the probabilistic density function of fracture properties md their relations to the hydraulic conductivity in volcanic rocks of the northern Yosu area. Fracture characteristics were investigated by core logging and acoustic televiewer logging in four boreholes and the hydraulic conductivity was obtained from the constant pressure injection and fall-off tests. The 303 fractures were grouped into three sets by their orientation and three fracture types by the degree of opening in aperture. As a result of the study, the hydraulic conductivity in the test section intersected by open and semi-open fractures, conductive fractures, and set 1 fractures was very high, while closed fractures did rarely affect the hydraulic conductivity. It was recognized that the hydraulic conductivity in a fractured rock mass was preferentially affected by the aperture size of conductive fractures and fracture intersection frequency and size, secondly.

This research are systematic and scientific approaches to obtain the distribution, occurrence and quality of granite stone for building purposes. The process of dimension stone exploration must be carried out to know the underground potentiality of granitic body using the basic data collection and study, field mapping, detailed drilling survey, televiewer technique, and physical and chemical tests in the Geochang area. Televiewer data obtained in drilling boreholes can be accurately distinguished from the discontinuous face, strike and inclination, extension which is difficult to obtain in a core logging. 3D joint images will be helpful to establish a quarry exploitation plan because the 3D joint images give quite accurate information down to depth below the outcrop surface. Through the process of the quality estimation on the Geochang site, the proven reserve estimated as dimensional building stone are calculated with good quality in petrologic and physical properties.

This paper deals with a development of combined seismic methods, based on the application of Televiewer and seismic tomography, for the quantitative assessment of reclaimed body or dam at seashores in our county. The underground structure of reclaimed dam is very complex, mainly due to the unexpected exchange of rock fragments with the marine silty mud in conjunction with S.C.P. (Sand Compaction Pile) foundation, so that for several reasons only the use of Televiewer and seismic tomography for general application might not lead to a desirable resolution. Kinds of upgraded measuring and evaluation techniques for that are needed. For examples, a novel strategy for capturing the returning impulses from the outer side of casing plastic pipe is desired to be developed. For the tomograhy, one should be being more focussed on the study of raw data based on the wave propagation theory. In this paper, it is shown that such multidisciplinary approaches can be, by attempting to compare and jointly interpret the results from two methods, much efficient for understanding the reclaimed dam structure.
