This study constructed a 3D geological model for Uggi Nuur Fe-Mn mineralization zone in Mongolia, and the 3D geological distribution is cross-analyzed with magnetic anomaly distribution to figure out relationship between ore zone and subsurface geology. As a result of 4 step 3D modeling procedures including geological cross section, surface modeling, foliation modeling and solid modeling, the geology of the both study area is bordered by faults in NW direction with Munguntessj formation being located in the west side of the fault while Yashill formation is located on the other side of the fault. Moreover, the strike direction of foliation in the both formation shows same directional pattern with the NW faults. The magnetic anomaly distribution reveals that higher anomaly values are concentrated to near the ground surface. The analyses of 3 dimensional distribution between subsurface geology and magnetic anomaly indicates that higher anomaly is mainly distributed over the Munguntessj formation as a elongated lens bodies whereas the magnetic anomaly is evenly found in the both of Munguntessj formation and Yashill formation in the study area 2. It infers that volcanic activities associated mineralization occurred during silurian period, and the mineralized zone is thought to be realigned along the geological structures caused by later stage tectonic activities.

Precambrian metamorphic rocks of southwest Sobaeksan massif consist of mainly granitic gneiss, porphyroblastic gneiss and quartzofeldspathic gneiss. The orthopyroxene-bearing rocks(charnockites) are found in the west of Hadong-Sancheong anorthosite complex. The charnockites are 3km wide, 12km long and divided into massive and foliated types based on their texture. The compositions of charnockites are comparable to granodiorite to adamellite and subalkaline. Variations in major and trace elemental abundances show typical magmatic differentiation trends. The geochemical data plotted on tectonic discrimination diagrams reveal that these charnockites were formed in the active tectonic environment. The massive and folidated charnockites are mainly composed of plagioclase, orthopyroxene, microcline, quartz and disseminated garnet. Camels generally show characteristic zonal textures with decreasing $X_{alm}$(0.74~0.83), $X_{Py}$ (0.07~0.12) and $X_{Mg}$ (0.12~0.08) and increasing $X_{grs}$(0.03~0.15) from core to rim. Metamorphic temperature and pressure of the charnockites estimated from orthopyroxene-garnet-plagioclase-quartz assemblages show wide range of variation of $600~900^{\circ}C$ and 2.5~7.5 kbar respectively. The results of P-T estimates indicate an anticlockwise P-T evolution path.

This study examines the mineralogy of sepiolites occurred within the carbonaceous rocks of Songak schist and Pyeongtaek migmatitic gneiss of Precambrian Seosan group, in the western part of Chungnam. Host rocks of the sepiolite were dolomitic rocks and have experienced hydrothermal alteration and metamorphism. Mesozoic granite is assumed as a main source of hydrothermal alteration for the dolomitic rocks. Some of the tremolite asbestos coexist with the sepiolites. Representative sepiolite and tremolite samples were collected from the layers cracks or fractures of the dolomitic rocks and/or examined with microscope with microscope, XRD, SEM and TEM. Sepiolites are mainly recognized along the cracks assumed as pathways of hydrothermal solution. Tremolites are mainly found at layers or cracks of the dolomitic rocks and occur as asbestos as well as non-asbestos forms. It was confirmed that some of the tremolite asbestos were coexisted with the sepiolites. Overall results suggest that the occurrences of sepiolites within the dolomitic rocks mainly result in the hydrothermal alteration and the fluid from the acidic rocks, possibly granites. It also suggests that coexisting tremolite asbestos were formed by similar geological environment.

In the Jirisan area of the Yeongnam Massif, Korea, several ductile shear zones are developed within Precambrian gneiss complex (Jirisan metamorphic rock complex). The ductile shear zones have a general NS- and NNE-striking foliation with westward dipping directions. The foliation developed in the shear zones cut the foliation in gneiss complex. The stretching lineations are well developed in the foliated plane of the shear zone, showing ENE-trend with gentle plunging angle to the ESE direction. Within shear zone, several millimetric to centimetric size of porphyroclasts are deformed strongly as a sigmoid form by ductile shearing. The sigmoid patterns of porphyroclasts in the shear zones indicate the dextral shearing. The spatial distribution of ductile shear zone is characterized by the dominant NS- and NNE-striking dextral sense in the central and eastern regions respectively. In the western part, it develops in NE-striking dextral sense which is the general direction of the Honam shear zone. The U-Pb concordant ages obtained from the two samples, the strongly sheared leucocratic gneiss, are $1,868{\pm}3.8Ma$ and $1,867{\pm}4.0Ma$, respectively, which are consistent with the U-Pb ages reported around the study area. We supposed that the ductile shearing in the study area is occurred about 230~220 Ma during late stage of the continental collision around Korea and is preceded by granitic intrusion related to subduction during 260~230 Ma, which are supported by compiling the age data from sheared gneiss, deformed mafic dyke intruded gneiss complex, and non-deformed igneous rocks.

동해 울릉분지에서 채취된 피스톤 코어 시료의 퇴적상과 유기물 특성을 대비하였다. 코어 시료의 퇴적상은 크게 홀로세 생물교란된 뻘 퇴적상과 빙하기의 다양한(생물교란된, 엽리가 발달된) 뻘 퇴적상으로 구분되었다. 코어 시료의 유기물 특성은 총유기탄소함량과 퇴적물 밝기($L^{\ast}$), 석영 함량, 오팔A 함량을 대비하여 밝혔다. 총유기탄소함량은 퇴적물 밝기와 높은 상관계수를 가진다. 코어 시료의 석영 함량은 총유기탄소함량과 퇴적시기에 따른 상관관계의 차이를 보이는데, 이것은 퇴적기작 차이에 의한 것으로 해석된다. 그리고 오팔 A와 총유기탄소함량의 상관관계는 퇴적장소에 따라 차이를 갖는다. 동해 울릉분지 코어 시료는 총유기탄소함량과 퇴적물 밝기가 높은 상관계수를 갖는데, 이것은 초기속성작용의 영향이 크지 않았음을 지시하는 것이다. 후기 홀로세에서는 총유기탄소함량이 거의 일정한 구간에서도 오팔A 함량이 큰 차이가 나타나는데, 이것은 퇴적장소에 따라 고해양 생산력의 차이가 있었음을 지시하는 것이다.

The Korean historical 1iteratures describe that great eaathquakes with destructive damages occurred mainly in Kyongju-Ulsan areas during the period of 1 to 8 century and 16 to 17 century. It seems that the Ulsan fault system shows a little curved ttend with N-S strike in the southern part and diverges into three directions from the mid-northern lart of the fault. The dominant trends of the lineaments are NNE-SSW, NE-SW and NS directions. Trench excavation in the mid-northern part of the Ulsan fault shows thrust facies cutting slope deposit containing a compacted laminar structure whose origin may due to severe cryogenic activities of the last cold period(ahout 25OOO B.P.). Detailed observation of the facies gives some evidences related to two earthquake episodes of thrust components along the Ulsan fault system. Fault outcrop and trench study suggest that Ulsan fault seems to he one of the active fault which has reworked several times even in the late Quaternary.

본 연구에서는 국내 암석을 암종별로 총 292개 채취하였으며 열물성 측정 장비를 이용하여 이들 암석의 열물성을 측정하였다. 이와 더불어 암석의 물리적 특성을 측정하였으며 일부 시료의 경우 XRD 정량분석을 실시하였다. 이들 결과를 이용하여 암석의 열물성 특성과 열물성에 영향을 주는 인자를 파악하였다. 암석의 열물성 측정 결과 열전도도와 열확산계수는 화강암에서 가장 낮은 값을 보였으며 퇴적암, 변성암 순으로 나타났다. 또한 암종별 열물성 값의 범위를 살펴보면 변성암과 퇴적암에서 넓게 분포한다. 암석의 물성과 열물성과의 상관성 분석 결과 공극률이 증가함에 따라 열전도도와 열확산계수가 감소하나 상관성은 미약한 것으로 나타났다. XRD 분석 결과 암석의 열전도도는 석영($SiO_2$)의 함량에 따른 선형의 비례관계를 보였다. 이로써 암석의 열전도도는 암석을 이루는 광물의 종류에 의하여 영향을 받음을 알 수 있다. 차후 암석의 구성 광물입자의 배열 상태에 따른 열물성 특성과 퇴적암 및 변성암 시료에 대한 이방성 실험을 통해 편리, 층리 및 엽리 등에 따른 열물생의 이방성 정도를 분석할 예정이다.

Geological and geophysical surveys were performed to examined the cause of the rock-mass slide occurred at the opening site of the Wanglim tunnel of the Seoul-Pusan High Speed Railway. The results of geophygical survey and geometrical analysis for the geological structures indicate that the rock-mass slide was triggered by the heavy rainfall which increases the groundwater level and results in high pore pressure in the N60$^{\circ}$ E-trending major fractured zone of the slope, and that the foliation dipping toward the vertical open face of the slope acted as a main sliding plane during movement.

Detailed survey of the rock mass is essential for design, construction and maintenance of rock slope. However, geological survey of poor outcrops and various geophysical aids provides limited information for slope engineering. Remote measurement system for excavation surface (Surface Mapper) and projection s/w for borehole data (Fracjection) are developed for further support of slope surveying. The Surface Mapper measures orientation of joint, fault, foliation on excavated rock surface and database the measured data. The Fracjection projects measurements in boreholes, which are obtained by BIPS, Televideo and DOM operation, to any expected excavation space. These methods promise new approaches for surveying, designing, constructing and maintaining processes of slope.

절토비탈면의 붕괴는 주로 지질구조 적으로 취약한 구간에서 강우, 지진, 발파진동, 굴착 등의 외적인 요인이 작용하였을 때 비탈면의 붕괴가 수반되는 경우가 많으며 내적인 요인으로 작용하는 지질구조는 구조선의 종류에 따라 붕괴규모나 붕괴양상에서 상당한 차이를 보이는 특성을 보인다. 특히, 비탈면 붕괴는 단층이나 점토가 충전된 구조선에서 문제가 많이 발생되고 방향성이 뚜렷한 엽리 및 절리에서 붕괴가 빈번한 실정이다. 단층은 일반적으로 모든 암종에서 나타나는 지질구조이나 특히, 변성암중 편마암에서 붕괴빈도가 빈번하게 발생되고 점토층이 수반되는 경우에 심하다. 본 논문은 공사당시 비교적 규모가 크게 붕괴가 발생된 붕적층 절토 비탈면과 단층파쇄대 및 암질불량의 비탈면의 붕괴사례의 안정검토 사례를 소개하고자 한다.
