Two heavy rainfalls in August of 1982 caused about two thousand failed slopes that seriously damaged to transportation networks on the Izu Peninsula in central Japan. About half of the failed slopes took place in hydrothermal alteration areas. Details of the mode, volume, and frequency of slope failure differed among the alteration zones. In general, slope failure was more frequent in low grade zones such as those made up of smectite and halloysite, probably because of the extreme decrease of the strength of the parent rock in the course of alteration. The change in rock strength seems to be related to the amount, mode of occurrence and mineralogical properties of the authigenic minerals.
