Fractures and Subsidiary Faults Developed in the Active Strike‐Slip Nojima Fault Zone, Japan, and Tectonic Implications

The Nojima Fault Zone, on which the 1995 Mw 6.9 Kobe (Japan) earthquake occurred, is characterized by pulverized cataclastic rocks with numerous fractures and subsidiary faults. The fractures and subsidiary faults were observed in trench walls and using borehole televiewer (BHTV) images from borehol...
