Repeated Seismic Slipping Events Recorded in a Fault Gouge Zone: Evidence From the Nojima Fault Drill Holes, SW Japan

Abstract Drilling investigations and structural analysis of drill cores reveal that a fault gouge zone of 10–30 cm in width was observed at depths of ~260 to 900 m in nine drill holes that intersected the Nojima Fault (NF), on which the 1995 Mw 6.9 Kobe (Japan) earthquake occurred.
