(editor), Core-log integration136391-412We used a database derived from the integration of core material and geophysical downhole measurements in order to investigate the relationships between fracturing and alteration in the volcanic section of DSDP ODP Hole 504B. The studied crustal section (from top of the basement to 1000 mbsf (metres below sea floor)) consists of low resistivity/high porosity pillow lavas associated with breccias and rubble material, alternating with high resistivity low porosity massive basalt flows. A positive correlation between DLL (Dual Laterolog)-derived porosity and occurrence of breccias in the core suggests that breccias more than fractures contribute to the electrical resistivity signal. A structural analysis performed from core suggests that most fractures and veins are steeply dipping, and may represent tectonic features or cracks due to contractional cooling of the crust, the latter being more abundant in pillows. Fractures and veins recorded on core tend to be clustered in massive units or thin flows. This result may derive from criteria adopted during structural measurements and must be taken with care. The natural radioactivity (GR) profile delineates two main alteration zones in the volcanic section; an oxidizing zone with increased potassium above, and a reducing one without K gain below. Most of the GR maxima are found to be correlated with celadonite-bearing alteration halos. GR minima are frequently located at the boundaries between domains of contrasting fracture orientation, where metasomatic reactions may have occurred due to contrasting permeability.completedOceanographyApplied geophysicsbasementCosta Rica Riftcrustdata basesdata processingDeep Sea Drilling Projectdeep-seated structuresdownhole methodsDSDP Site 504East PacificimageryIPODLeg 111Leg 137Leg 140Leg 148Leg 69Leg 70Leg 83Leg 92lithostratigraphymarine geologyOcean Drilling Programocean floorsPacific Oceanwell-loggingurn:org.iodp:exp:111urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:137urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:140urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:148urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:69urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:70urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:83urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:92urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:69:site:504urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:69urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:70:site:504urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:70urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:83:site:504urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:83urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:92:site:504urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:92urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:111:site:504urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:111urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:137:site:504urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:137urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:140:site:504urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:140urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:148:site:504urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:148urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation-129.4614-83.4000-19.27062.0000
