Summary This book addresses the problem of distinguishing natural fractures from induced fractures in both oriented and unoriented core. Natural fractures include any cored fracture that existed in a volume of rock prior to initiation of drilling or coring-related stresses. Induced fractures in core are those that develop during drilling, coring, and subsequent handling. Many of the procedures for distinguishing between the two are based primarily on recognition of fracture surface structures and fracture traces that differ between natural fractures and induced fractures.
