July 11, 2012 - JAPAN - A 20-meter-long crack was found halfway up
Mount Fuji in Yamanashi Prefecture after a 6.4-magnitude earthquake
hit on March 15, 2011, centered around eastern Shizuoka Prefecture,
local authorities revealed Tuesday. They ruled out the possibility of
an eruption. “No abnormalities have been observed regarding Mount Fuji
and the mountain shows no signs of an eruption,” an official at the
Meteorological Agency said, indicating the crack was caused not by
volcanic activity but by the temblor. Both the width and depth of the
crack were several centimeters, and it has subsequently been covered
by sand and pebbles, according to the Yamanashi Prefectural
Government. “Nothing has happened after more than a year (since the
discovery of the crack), so Mount Fuji is probably not going to
erupt,” said Shigeo Aramaki, head of the Yamanashi Institute of
Environmental Sciences, who inspected the crack in June last year. -
