In the process of the exploration and development of the mud shale gas, the development of the shale fracture is one of the important evaluating indexes. On the basis of the previous studies, combined with the regional geological survey in Southeast Chongqing, data from outcrop and core fractures were collected, summarized, and analyzed to explore the characteristics of the shale fracture development in this area and summarize the law of the fracture development and explore the main controlling factors of mud shale. This study provides geological basis for mud shale gas exploration.
