We study two-dimensional tensorial elastic wave transport in densely fractured media and document transitions from propagation to diffusion and to localization/delocalization. For large fracture stiffness, waves are propagative at the scale of the system. For small stiffness, multiple scattering prevails, such that waves are diffusive in disconnected fracture networks, and localized in connected ones with a strong multifractality of the intensity field. A reentrant delocalization is found in well-connected networks due to energy leakage via evanescent waves and cascades of mode conversion.
