Much of the reports were of rumbling and faint shaking.

Is it correct to use "much of" this way?

Yes. There were reports of other things, but much of what was reported was 'rumbling and faint shaking'.

English is my first language. I've been speaking it for nearly 40 years. I'm currently learning Japanese and need all the help I can get!

Would "many of" be wrong instead of "much of"?
