Tonoshiki Fm is a breccia-dominated unit which was deposited during Maizuru back-arc basin closure. Two types of breccia are identified with different petrological, geochronological, and microstructural features. They show Latest Permian depositional ages of 259 and 251 Ma, implying its formation during two events of tectonic activity-induced debris flows. Network of fracture-filled veins in the breccia provides evidence of hydraulic fracture representing the tectonic signature of basin closure.
