초록

한반도 동남부에 발달하는 양산단층의 주 단층대가 울산시 울주군 두동면 천전리 일대에서 확인되었다. 단층대는 폭 약 100 m에 달하며, 주로 남-북 방향으로 거의 수직에 가까운 고각의 단층대를 이루고 있다. 주 단층대는 주로 남-북 방향의 단층비지 및 단층각력과 함께 이들에 둘러싸인 모암의 렌즈들로 구성된다. 고각의 전단면에서 주로 관찰되는 단층조선은 거의 수평으로 주향이동운동이 가장 우세하게 단층대에 남아 있다. 단층전단감각에 의하면 대부분 우향의 주향이동운동이 우세하다. 동시에 동측으로 중각으로 경사하는 소규모 단층들이 고각의 전단면들을 자르며, 동측의 상반이 서쪽으로 이동한 역단층운동을 보이기도 하여, 주 운동인 우향의 주향이동 이후에 동-서 방향의 압축에 의한 역단층운동이 후속하였음을 지시하고 있다. 또한, 주 단층대 내에는 주로 남-북 방향인 단층대와는 달리 북동-남서 내지는 동-서 방향에 가까운 단층대가 국지적으로 발달하고 있다. 이들은 연속적인 우향의 전단변형의 존재를 지시하는 비대칭 습곡과 함께 발달하고 있음이 특징적이다. 따라서 주 단층대는 우향의 연속적인 변형효과와 후기의 동-서 압축에 의한 효과까지 중첩되어 매우 복잡한 단층대의 기하학적인 양상을 보이고 있다. 이들과 함께 단층대를 부정합으로 피복하는 하성역층 또한 단층운동에 의해 잘려져 있어, 제4기 단층운동의 존재를 지시하고 있다. 이들 제4기 단층은 단층대의 중심부이자 서쪽의 유천층군 화산암과 동쪽의 하양층군 퇴적암이 접하는 경계부 단층면 근처에서 발달하고 있다. 따라서 양산단층의 주 단층대와 단층핵 부분의 파악이 제4기 단층과 활성단층을 찾는데 중요함을 보여주는 좋은 예라고 판단된다.

The main fault zone of the Yangsan Fault, located in the southeastern part of the Korean peninsula, is newly found at the Cheonjin-ri, Dudong-myeon, Ulju-gun, Ulsan, Korea. About 100 wide fault zone exposed along the Guryangcheon stream strikes N-S and dips over 70° toward east. The main fault zone is composed of N-S-striking gouge and breccia layers and enclosed lenses. Striations on the subvertical fault surfaces mainly indicate dextral slip, but moderate-angle minor reverse faults showing top-tothe-west shearing transect the foliated high-angle gouge and breccia layers. These indicate that the dextral slip along the fault, which is interpreted as the main movement of the fault, was followed by reverse slip. The fault zone is composed of N-S-striking gouge layers and enclosed, fractured lenses. Locally distributed NE-SW- to E-W-striking fault gouge layers with fractured lenses show asymmetric folds, indicating progressive dextral movement. Therefore, the exposed fault zone has a high internal complexity due to the combined effects of NNE-SSW-trending dextral shearing and E-W-trending shortening by compression. In addition, around main boundary fault between the western volcanic rocks and eastern sedimentary rocks offsets the overlying Quaternary fluvial conglomerate. This is a good example that understanding of internal structures of main fault zone (or fault core), such as the Yangsan Fault, plays an important role to study the Quaternary activity and to find the active fault.
