Zircon fission-track (FT) and uranium-lead (U-Pb) dating were carried out to determine the ages of the Biei, Tokachi, and Sounkyo pyroclastic flow deposits in the Biei and Kamikawa areas of central Hokkaido, northern Japan. We collected pumiceous tuff samples of the Biei pyroclastic flow deposits from two sites in the middle and lower reaches of the Biei River, and Tokachi pyroclastic flow deposits from one site to the west of Tokachi caldera. A sample of welded tuff from the Sounkyo pyroclastic flow deposits was obtained from one site in the lower reaches of the Antaroma River. The FT ages of the Biei pyroclastic flow deposits are 0.81±0.08 Ma and 0.72±0.08 Ma, identical to each other within 1σ error. However, they differ from an age of 1.91±0.06 Ma reported previously from the upper reaches of the Biei River. Based on the present data and previous results on the ages and petrographical characteristics of the deposits, they can be divided at least two geological units with different eruption ages. A FT age of 0.058±0.018 Ma (1σ) was obtained from the Sounkyo pyroclastic flow deposits. On the basis of previous studies concerning the distribution and petrographical characteristics of the deposits, this age was obtained from Hb-type pyroclastic flow deposit among the Hb- and Py-type flows of the Sounkyo pyroclastic flow deposits. The Tokachi pyroclastic flow deposits yielded a U-Pb age of 1.24±0.02 Ma (2σ), which falls within the wide range of ages reported in previous studies. Because the Tokachi pyroclastic flow deposits have a wide distribution and a wide range of ages, they can be divided into several geological units with different eruption ages, as with the Biei pyroclastic flow deposits.

旭岳(標高2291m)は御鉢平カルデラの南西に位置する成層火山で,現在でも活発な噴気活動がおこっている.旭岳山頂部から東には熊ヶ岳(2210m)の火砕丘と後旭岳(2216m)の溶岩円頂丘があり,いずれも旭岳の噴出物に覆われている.旭岳サブグループの活動は,山体の違いによって熊ヶ岳火山体,後旭岳火山体,旭岳火山体の3つに大別される.旭岳火山体については主にマグマ噴火を行った前期と主に水蒸気噴火を行った後期に区分され,さらに前期噴出物は噴出量とマグマタイプの違いを基にE-1サブステージとE-2サブステージに細分される.旭岳サブグループの噴出物は,特に苦鉄質側岩石の組成で山体および活動期間で区別できる.旭岳の活動では,従来の研究で指摘されているようにマグマ混合が支配的プロセスであるが,今回の検討によって山体(火口)および山体での活動期毎に,特に苦鉄質端成分が変化していることが明らかになった.
