The study area located in Chongpung-myon and Kumsong-Myon, Chewon-Kun, Chungbuk Province consists of the Chosun Group (Great Limestone Series) in eastern part and the Okchon Group in Western part. In order to clarify the structural relationship between the two groups, structural patterns and geologic features have systematically been investigated. The dominant structural features of the area are NW~E trending thrust faults, which are interpreted to have formed by progressive northward thrust movement during the Late CretaceousrEarly Tertiary orgeny. The predominant ocurrence of cataclastic rocks such as fault breccia, fault clay and micro-breccia suggests that the thrust faults were formed at relatively high level. The folds in limestone area consist of the primary fold (axial plane of NNW direction)and the secondary fold (axial plane of NE direction). F1 fold looks like a recumbent fold and F2 fold looks like up-right fold. The interference patterns of the area are applicable type 3. According to the interlimb angle F1 fold is included to the closed fold and F2 fold the open fold. The micro fabric study reveals that the ductile deformation is dominant in this area. According to the strain measurements using the deformed quartz grains, Lode'value(ν) is-0.24∼1.00 and the strain ellipsoids are oblate and prolate strain type.
