Fig. 1From: Fault weakening caused by smectite swellingLocation, lithological units, porosity and mineralogical profiles of the JFAST drill site. a Location of the JFAST drill site (Site C0019; modified from Kimura et al. 2012). b Lithological units at the JFAST drill site, porosity profile deduced from logging data and core sample analysis (MAD), and variations in the bulk-rock smectite content. The solid and dotted lines along the porosity profile represent 1σ and 2σ, respectively. Note that the fault zone (Unit 4) is strongly enriched in smectiteBack to article page
