Surface geology and heophysical data, supplemented by regional structural interpretations, indicate that the Valle del Cauca basin and adjacent areas in west-central Colombia form a west-vergent, basement-involved fold and thrust belt. This belt is part of a Cenozoic orogen developed along the west side of the Romeral fault system. Structural analysis and geometrical constraints show that the Mesozoic ophiolitic basement and its Cenozoic sedimentary cover are involved in a “thick-skinned” west-vergent foreland style deformation. The rocks are transported and shortened by deeply rooted thrust faults and stacked in imbricate fashion. The faults have a NE---SW regional trend, are listric in shape, developed as splay faults which are interpreted as joining a common detachment at over 10 km depth. The faults carry Paleogene sedimentary strata and Cretaceous basement rocks westward over Miocene strata of the Valle del Cauca Basin. Fold axes trend parallel or sub parallel to the thrust faults. The folds are westwardly asymmetrical with parallel to kink geometry, and are interpreted to be fault-propagation folds stacked in an imbricate thrust system. Stratigraphic evidence suggests that the Valle del Cauca basin was deformed between Oligocene and upper Miocene time. The kinematic history outlined above is consistent with an oblique convergence between the Panama and South American plates during the Cenozoic.A negative residual Bouguer anomaly of 20–70 mgls in the central part of the Valle del Cauca basin indicates that a substantial volume of low density sedimentary rocks is concealed beneath the thrust sheets exposed at the land surface. The hydrocarbon potential of the Valle del Cauca should be reevaluated in light of the structural interpretations presented in this paper.  相似文献

The conspicuous curved structures located at the eastern front of the Eastern Cordillera between 25° and 26° south latitude is coincident with the salient recognized as the El Crestón arc. Major oblique strike-slip faults associated with these strongly curved structures were interpreted as lateral ramps of an eastward displaced thrust sheet. The displacement along these oblique lateral ramps generated the local N–S stress components responsible for the complex hanging wall deformation. Accompanying each lateral ramp, there are two belts of strong oblique fault and folding: the upper Juramento River valley area and El Brete area.On both margins of the Juramento River upper valley, there is extensive map-scale evidence of complex deformation above an oblique ramp. The N–S striking folds originated during Pliocene Andean orogeny were subsequently or simultaneously folded by E–W oriented folds. The lateral ramps delimiting the thrust sheet coincident with the El Crestón arc salient are strike-slip faults emplaced in the abrupt transitions between thick strata forming the salient and thin strata outside of it. El Crestón arc is a salient related to the pre-deformational Cretaceous rift geometry, which developed over a portion of this basin (Metán depocenter) that was initially thicker. The displacement along the northern lateral ramp is sinistral, whereas it is dextral in the southern ramp. The southern end of the Eastern Cordillera of Argentina shows a particular structure reflecting a pronounced along strike variations related to the pre-deformational sedimentary thickness of the Cretaceous basin.  相似文献

宁夏中部牛首山地区的古生代地层发育了许多具有逆冲构造特征的的变形构造,断层相关褶皱非常发育。通过分析这些构造及其相互关系,恢复了该地区中奥陶统米钵山组的变形过程,表明该套地层经历了(1)岩层受到水平挤压,顺层缩短阶段,(2)褶皱变形阶段,(3)逆冲变形阶段等三个阶段;这些构造是逆冲推覆构造发育不同阶段的产物。牛首山以及宁夏南部的大、小罗山是古逆冲构造带的前缘部分,宁夏中南部地区在中奥陶世至泥盆纪是作为北祁连造山带北侧的弧后前陆盆地靠大陆一侧而存在随着该弧后盆地的关闭,牛首山前缘构造带形成。而现今的牛首山以及宁夏中南部的奥陶系很可能都是无根的。  相似文献

Intracontinental foreland basins with fold-and-thrust belts on the southern periphery of the Tianshan orogenic belt in China resulted from still-active contractional deformation ultimately cased by the India–Asia collision. To quantify the amounts of shortening distance and the rates of deformation, and to decipher the architectural framework, we mapped the stratigraphy and structure of four anticlines in the Kuqa and Baicheng foreland thrust belts in the central southern Tianshan. In the Baicheng foreland thrust belts, Lower Cretaceous Baxigai and Bashijiqike Formations located in the core of the Kumugeliemu anticline are overlain by the Paleocene to Eocene Kumugeliemu Formation, above which are conformable Oligocene through Pleistocene sediments. A disharmonic transition from parallel to unconformable bedding at the boundary of the Miocene Kangcun and Pliocene Kuqa Formations suggests a change from pre-detachment folded strata to beds deposited on top of a growing anticline. Most of the anticlines have steep limbs (70–90°) and are box to isoclinal folds, suggestive of detachment folding or faulted detachment folding (faults that transect a fold core or limb). Shortening estimates calculated from the cross-sections by the Excess area method indicate that the total shortening for the Kelasu, Kuchetawu, Kezile and Yaken sections are 6.3 km, 6.4 km, 5.8 km and 0.6 km, respectively, and the respective depths of the detachment zones are (2.3 km and 6.9 km), 2.3 km, 2.5 km and 3.4 km. Time estimates derived from a paleomagnetic study indicate that the transition to syn-folding strata occurred at ∼6.5 Ma at the Kuchetawu section along the Kuqa river. In addition, according to our field observations and previous sedimentary rate studies, the initial time of folding of the Yaken anticline was at 0.15–0.21 Ma. Therefore, the average shortening rate that began at ∼6 Ma was ∼2 mm/a for the Kelasu, Kuchetawu and Kezile sections. At 0.15–0.21 Ma, the average shortening rate increased to 3–4 mm/a in the Yaken section. Combined with the recent GPS data, the shortening rate in the central southern Tianshan area increased to 4.7 ± 1.5 mm/a at present. We suggest that there was a linear increase in shortening rate in the southern Tianshan foreland basin, which also indicates that the far field stress increased considerably from the late Miocene to Present in response to the India–Asia collision.  相似文献

雪峰山西侧贵州地区中生代构造特征及其演化   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
贵州中生代变形主要发生在燕山期,发育三幕褶皱变形、两幕逆冲和三幕走滑。根据区域对比、卷入褶皱的地层和褶皱间的叠加关系,判断三期褶皱的形成顺序依次为近东西向、北东向和南北向,时限在J_3—K_2之间。逆冲推覆构造主要由向北西或西逆冲的近南北向逆冲断层组成,大体与南北向褶皱同时形成;自雪峰构造带西缘向西,依次划分出根部带、中部带和前锋带。但是,在根部带识别出两幕逆冲推覆,其它两带各识别出一幕。走滑断层也有3个方向:东西向、北东向和近南北向。东西向走滑断层呈现出右行压扭的运动学特征,而大多数北东向走滑断层是左行张扭性质的。依据各个方向断层间的切割和限制关系,推测东西向走滑断层最早形成,其次是南北向逆冲断层,北东向走滑断层最晚活动。这些断裂和褶皱特征,总体表现出贵州多重多种复合联合的构造特征,最后,探讨了本区的构造成因模式。  相似文献

TWO PHASES OF CENOZOIC DEFORMATION IN NORTHEASTERN TIBET: THRUSTING FOLLOWED BY STRIKE-SLIP FAULTING  相似文献

The development of belt structures in intracratonic chains is guided by the convergence system. In the Southern-Central Tunisian Atlas, several parameters control the evolution of thrust folds during different tectonic phases. One of these phases is tectonic inheritance, which leads to the reactivation of pre-existing normal faults during compressive phases. The angle between the direction of these faults and the shortening axis (NNW-SSE) is the most important parameter for interpreting the mode of the evolution of thrust folds. Jebel Elkebar is an example of a structure developed on NW-SE-oriented faults that is perpendicular to the shortening axis. Based on the geometry of its folds, Jebel Elkebar is interpreted as a 'Fault Related Fold'. The E-W-oriented Orbata structure is oblique to the direction of the shortening axis and is interpreted through the model 'Fault Propagation Fold' with 'Breakthrough'. The Gafsa Fault, which is parallel to the shortening axis, is a transpressional fault interpreted through the 'Strain Partitioning' mode, which is associated with the oblique ramp fold. The development of various thrust folds requires the presence of a basal decollement level during the Triassic succession. In the Southern-Central Tunisian Atlas, the deformation is variable (geometry of fold closure) and is correlated with the depth of the decollement level; indeed, the intensity of deformation is proportional to the depth of the decollement level. Consequently, the most important deformation is in the higher successions and is a vertical migration of the decollement level associated with thin-skinned deformation.  相似文献

论鄂尔多斯盆地及其周缘侏罗纪变形   总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21  
侏罗纪是东亚大地构造发展的重要转折时期,在鄂尔多斯盆地及其周缘可划分为两个性质不同的构造变形阶段。早中侏罗世,盆地处于弱引张应力环境,引张方向近N-S至NNE-SSW向,伸展变形主要发生在盆地周边地带,其发生与晚三叠世华南-华北地块沿秦岭造山带碰撞后的陆内应力场调整作用有关。中晚侏罗世,盆地遭受多向挤压应力作用,挤压方向近W-E、NW-SE和NE-SW,在盆地周缘形成展布方向不一、构造样式不同的边界挤压构造带,盆地轮廓基本定型。西缘近N-S向逆冲-推覆构造带的形成与阿拉善地块和陇西地块向东挤出作用有关;东缘及东南缘总体呈“S”形展布的挤压边界带表现为反向逆冲断裂及其相关褶皱,推测发生在山西台褶带深部滑脱系统的前锋上盘断坡。盆地北侧大青山地区近东西向大型推覆构造和早中侏罗世伸展断陷盆地构造挤压反转,表明阴山造山带在中晚侏罗世时期强烈的N-S向缩短变形和再生造山。鄂尔多斯盆地周缘边界构造带记录了中晚侏罗世强烈的陆内多向内挤压作用和大陆地壳增厚过程,其发生的动力学背景与周邻不同板块(古太平洋、西伯利亚、特提斯)同时向东亚大陆汇聚产生的远程效应有关。中晚侏罗世多向挤压变形加速了鄂尔多斯盆地生烃过程,对多种能源矿产富集和成藏定位产生重要影响。  相似文献

The fold-thrust tectonics in the Northern Tarim Basin, oriented roughly parallel to the South Tianshan orogenic belt, consists of two large-scale tectonic regimes: (1) the foreland-basin, thin-skinned deformation belt; and (2) the foreland-craton, thick-skinned-dominated (i.e., basement-involved) deformation belt. Variations in the degree of deformation in these tectonic belts and style along the regional tectonic strike can be accounted for by longitudinal (progressive) transfer or transverse (abrupt) transfer. Longitudinal transfer maintains the overall displacement or shortening within the fold-thrust belts as uniform or with gradual change along the tectonic strike. This includes the tectonic transfer between en echelon master thrusts and from the individual master thrust to terminal fold (s) or distributive thrusts. Transverse transfer resulted from an abrupt change in overall displacement or shortening along the tectonic strike. Within the transverse transfer zone, various tectonics—such as strike-slip faults, strike-slip thrusts, transverse anticlines, and en echelon folds—are developed.

The development of longitudinal transfer zones can be attributed to the gradual variation of intrinsic and extrinsic deformational conditions along the tectonic strike. The initiation of transverse transfer may be related to variations in the thickness of sedimentary layers, detachment-layer distribution limits, and variation along strike of the degree and mode of the South Tianshan orogenic belt's effect on the basin, as well as the variation of the boundary conditions of the deformation, such as in the geometry of plate margins.  相似文献

《Geodinamica Acta》2013,26(3):145-167
Folds constitute a significant part within the dominantly extension-related deformation pattern of the Gediz Graben and their origin either extensional or contractional has been the subject of debate. Field and subsurface data presented in this paper suggest that folds of contractional and extensional origin coexist in the graben-fill sediments. Contractional folds are predominantly observed within the Alasehir formation. A north vergent, plunging, asymmetrical to overturned geometry characterizes these folds and they are commonly observed in association with south dipping both thrust and reverse faults; the presence of thrust/reverse faults in the Gediz Graben is documented for the first time here. Fault data suggest an approximately N–S direction of compression that has governed the contractional deformation. Yet the limited distribution of these structures prevents to relate them with confidence to a regional deformation phase.

Extensional folds occur in association with normal faults either as structures longitudinal or transverse with respect to the general graben trend. Transverse folds are a very common within the buried graben block, owing to the lateral displacement gradients (lateral difference in offset) on the individual fault segments along the southern margin of the graben. Synclines and anticlines have formed at displacement maxima and minima, respectively. Thickness of strata increases at synclines and decreases at anticlines, thus indicating the syn-depositional origin of the folding.  相似文献

焉耆盆地和静北部地区发育一个现今地貌上的小型背驮盆地。新生代地层中砾岩砾石成分稳定,以变质岩和沉积岩成分居多,岩浆岩很少;砂岩成熟度普遍低,长石和石英含量少,岩屑含量居多,砂岩成熟度从盆地早期渐新统—中新统的玛萨盖特组到上新统—更新统安吉然组下降。该盆地内部及其周缘地区新生代地层古水流方向主要向南,显示物源是北部的南天山地区,直至更新世时期该背驮盆地并未单独发育,而是焉耆盆地北部的一部分。由于天山地区的侧向扩展作用,更新世以来本区形成了典型的逆冲断裂带,北部的逆冲断层使中泥盆统逆冲到安吉然组之上,中部的一条逆冲断裂使下伏的中泥盆统和花岗岩体抬升,形成了现今的地貌;南部的逆冲断层作用在安吉然组内形成了南陡北缓的断层相关褶皱。和静地区的新生代变形是由北向南进行的,具有西强东弱的特点,西部地区的构造缩短率大于东部地区。  相似文献

There are many thrust-related structures occurring in the Paleozoic strata of the Niushou Mountain in the central part of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. The fault-related folds are the typical structures in this area. Based on the analysis about these structures and their relationships, the processes by which these structures of the Miboshan Formation were formed are reconstructed, and the strata underwent about three stages of deformation: (1) horizontal shortening, (2) folding, and (3) thrusting. And the fact that the Niushou Mountain is the leading edge of an old thrust sheet was proved, the Niushou Mountain, the Daluo Mountain and the Xiaoluo Mountain together constitute the front part of this old thrust zone, so the Niushou Mountain and the Ordovician strata in the central and southern parts of Ningxia now are likely allochthons. In the period from middle Ordovician to Devonian, the areas of the central and southern Ningxia belonged to the back-arc foreland basin of North Qilianshan orogen, which was adjacent to the continent in the north. In the later part of the early Paleozoic period, the Niushou Mountain was formed after the closure of the back-arc foreland basin.  相似文献

The Variscan Belt in western Europe shows an arcuate geometry that is usually named Ibero-Armorican Arc. The nucleus of this arc, known as the Asturian Arc, comprises the Cantabrian Zone which is a foreland fold and thrust belt. The Trubia River area is located in the inflexion zone of the Asturian Arc, which is a strategic structural position for unraveling the geometry and kinematics of the Variscan thrust sheets and related folds. Geological mapping, construction of stratigraphic and structural cross sections, analysis of kinematic indicators, and estimate of shortening for each cross section have been carried out. This area consists of two major antiform-synform pairs related to two imbricate thrust systems. These folds are asymmetric, tight, and their axial traces follow the trend of the Asturian Arc. They have been interpreted as fault-propagation folds. The emplacement directions measured in the Trubia River area change from north to south and converge towards the core of the Asturian Arc. The minimum shortening estimated ranges between 16.4 and 17.6 km, which corresponds to 56.9 and 59.4%. The complex cross-cutting relationships between folds and thrusts suggest that, in general, the different structural units followed a forward-breaking sequence of emplacement, with some breaching and a few out-of-sequence thrusts. The analysis of the transport vectors together with the disposition of the fold axes and post-thrusting faults that deform the thrust stack are evidence of a late deformation event that is partially or totally responsible for the arcuate form of the Asturian Arc. The timing of the Asturian Arc, amount of shortening, and sequence of emplacement of the structures are in accordance with previous regional studies of the Cantabrian Zone.  相似文献

Abstract

A close relationship between formation of approximately upright folds with axes normal to the extension direction and ramp/flat extensional geometries is established for well exposed Neogene syn-extensional rocks on the presently low-angle Gediz detachment fault, along the southern margin of the Gediz Graben region of western Anatolia, Turkey. Three unconformity-bounded sedimentary sequences and several metamorphic extensional allochthons were mapped in the upper-plate of the Gediz detachment. The oldest sedimentary sequence consists of deformed and folded strata of sandstones and conglomerates that are regarded as being deposited in a supra-detachment basin during the Miocene-Early Pliocene. This unit rests unconformably on the extensional allochthonous, but directly in fault contact with the lower-plate mylonitic rocks. The younger slightly tilted Late Pliocene-Pleistocene sedimentary sequences are post-detachment units that are controlled by EW-trending high-angle normal faults. The youngest alluvium comprises the undeformed present-day basin fill of the Gediz Graben. The supra-detachment sedimentary rocks contain a number of kilometric-scale longitudinal folds that are nearly parallel to the east-west-trending fault system of the Gediz Graben. The folds have a steeply inclined bisecting surface, an interlimb angle of 130–150°, and a plunge of <10°. These folds may be interpreted to form as a result of bending in the underlying Gediz detachment fault. The bending may have an alternation of ramp and flat geometries on which a hanging-wall syncline and rollover anticline formed, respectively. This study again shows the importance of local geology in understanding of some spectacular structures of the extensional basins. © 2002 Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS.

祁连山北缘冲断带的特征与空间变化规律   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
祁连山北缘冲断带是中国西部一条十分重要的新生代冲断带,它的研究不仅对探讨青藏高原新生代隆升过程和板内造山作用具有重要的意义,而且对酒泉盆地南缘的油气勘探也具有重要的意义。在大量野外地质调查、地震资料解释和钻井资料分析的基础上,开展祁连山北缘冲断带的特征与空间变化规律研究。祁连山北缘冲断带具有多层次的逆冲结构,包括浅层的远距离冲断系统、中层的近距离冲断系统和深层的原地冲断系统,其中原地冲断系统又可划分为原地隐伏和原地显露冲断系统。冲断带变形特征自西向东可分为三段。酒泉盆地南缘的冲断带是一水平位移量较大的、沿着至少三个滑脱面由南而北产生收缩变形的薄皮冲断系统,原地隐伏冲断系统发育很宽。榆木山南缘—民乐盆地南缘西段的冲断带中发育较宽的原地显露冲断系统,而原地隐伏冲断系统较窄。民乐盆地南缘东段—武威盆地南缘发育宽度较大的原地显露冲断系统,由三叠系、石炭系—二叠系、奥陶系、寒武系和岩体组成的冲断片相互叠置,形成冲断带宽广的"显露式"前锋,原地隐伏系统不发育。祁连山北缘冲断带的变形量由西往东逐渐减小。酒西坳陷旱峡剖面构造缩短率为55.1%;民乐盆地魏拉达坂构造剖面缩短率最大为43.4%;武威盆地天桥沟—西马河构造剖面缩短率最大为40.4%。祁连山北缘冲断带西段的变形时期大致开始于9Ma,并以"前展式"向北扩张,变形时间向北变新,前锋断层开始活动时间约为8.3Ma。  相似文献
