<p>Methods and systems for gathering, deriving, and displaying the azimuthal brittleness index of a borehole. At least some embodiments include various methods for calculating and displaying borehole measurements in real-time for geosteering and drilling operations. At least one disclosed method embodiment for calculating and displaying azimuthal brittleness includes taking measurements of compressional and shear wave velocities as a function of position and orientation from inside the borehole. These velocity measurements are taken by a azimuthal sonic tool. Azimuthal brittleness is then derived based at least in part on the compressional and shear wave velocities.</p>
