藏南古堆地区的新生代构造样式

藏南古堆地区具南北分带特征。北部地区靠达拉岩体,受也拉香波穹窿影响,断层以倾向南的正断层为主,地层呈多期次挤压褶皱形态,且出现呈楔形构造夹片出露的红柱石板岩、石榴石片岩等变质核杂岩地层;中部地区断层、褶皱较发育,褶皱呈紧闭的层间同斜褶皱,断层以倾向北的叠瓦状脆-韧性逆冲断层为主;南部地区为相对稳定区,该区地层相对较完整,褶皱以宽缓向斜形式出现,且越往南越宽缓。这一构造样式是印度板块与欧亚板块碰撞之后,在喜马拉雅造山运动影响及后期伸展作用的背景之下,由北向南的挤压推覆的结果,总体上它是一套挤压褶皱～推覆逆冲断层的组合,呈叠瓦状展布的隆子断裂是主推覆断层。     

库车盆地古-新近纪蒸发岩沉积对喜马拉雅构造运动期次的响应

库车盆地在古—新近纪时期发育巨厚的蒸发岩沉积,自下而上蒸发岩沉积地层主要有:古近系的库姆格列木组、苏维依组;新近系下部的吉迪克组,依据部分钻井剖面资料,可识别出5个蒸发岩沉积旋回。库姆格列木时期巨厚的蒸发岩沉积（Ⅰ1、Ⅰ2沉积旋回期）是燕山后期相对宁静的大地构造环境反映;苏维依时期蒸发岩沉积（Ⅰ3沉积旋回期）在岩性、沉积范围上发生明显改变,反映了早喜马拉雅构造环境下的不稳定沉积,吉迪克早期巨厚的盐、膏沉积（Ⅰ4沉积旋回期）及沉积区域的继续迁移则反映了早喜马拉雅构造影响仍然存在但已经减弱;吉迪克中期（Ⅰ5沉积旋回期）蒸发岩沉积结束,盐湖沉积转变为陆源碎屑岩夹薄层石膏沉积,以砂、砾为主的山麓相沉积指示了当时山体抬升、遭受剥蚀、快速堆积的沉积环境,反映了相对活动的大地构造环境,是中喜马拉雅构造运动时期的开始。可见,库车盆地的蒸发岩沉积与喜马拉雅构造运动有较好的对应关系,是大区域的构造运动在小区域范围内的地质事件反映。     

四川盆地喜马拉雅期地应力场演化对油气运移聚集影响

根据四川盆地及邻区的新构造运动,天然发震机制、石油钻探、人工地震,构造圈闭形态变异及交切关系、储层或油气藏压力、卫星遥感信息解译等多方面资料综合分析得出,喜马拉雅三幕构造运动区域主压应力方向变化很大,早幕和晚幕运动为NE-SW向,中幕运动为NW-SE向。晚幕运动形成的北西向新油气构造圈闭,与中幕运动形成的北北东向及燕山中幕形成的北东东向含油气构造圈闭或油气藏复合叠加,形成了一大批复合背斜构造圈闭的油气藏,也是四川盆地油气勘探最佳远景区。     

环青藏高原盆山体系东段新构造变形特征——以川西为例

介于扬子板块与青藏高原之间的川西前陆冲断带是环青藏高原盆山体系东段的重要组成部分,它是研究喜马拉雅构造运动对青藏高原东缘沉积盆地构造作用的重要场所。本文分别选取川西南段、川西北段和川北西段米仓山前的区域构造地质剖面来研究沉积地层在喜马拉雅运动中发生的构造变形特征。通过前陆冲断构造变形带的宽度、水平缩短量,山体隆升、盆地沉降,新构造对早期古构造的叠加与改造关系的研究,揭示出在环青藏高原盆山体系内,造山带与盆地边缘的冲断构造变形从造山带向克拉通盆地内扩展的同时受欧亚大陆与印度板块碰撞及其远程效应的空间位置限制,靠近青藏高原的川西南段到远离它的川北西段,新构造变形强度、新构造变形范围、盆山耦合程度具有依次降低等特征。这种受环青藏高原盆山体系控制的前陆冲断带构造变形具有明显的资环效应,特别是对油气资源的聚集与分布有重要的影响,控制了川西南段晚期次生气藏发育,川西北段和川北西段的早期原生气藏的发育。     

Non-metamorphosed autochthonous Kuncha-Naudanda-Heklang Formations and their differences from those of the Kuncha nappe: A multichronological approach

Non-metamorphosed, autochthonous Lesser Himalayan sediments (LHS), which are correlated to the Kuncha and Naudanda Formations, were found in a narrow belt between the Main Boundary Thrust and the Lesser Himalayan Thrust at the base of the Kuncha nappe in southeastern Nepal. The autochthonous Naudanda Formation is comprised of cross-bedded and rippled orthoquartzite and yielded a maximum depositional age of 1795.1 Ma ±5.1 Ma using detrital zircons. Low-grade metamorphosed quartzite in the Kuncha nappe yielded a maximum depositional age of 1867.4 Ma ±3.4 Ma, although it is totally recrystallized. These ages and age distribution patterns of detrital zircon grains indicate that the meta-quartzite of the nappe is originally Naudanda Formation. A zircon fission-track age of the autochthonous Naudanda Formation shows partially annealed age of 864 Ma ±56 Ma, in contrast, that of the Kuncha nappe shows a totally annealed age of 11.9 Ma ±1.6 Ma. These results suggest that the autochthonous LHS have never undergone metamorphism during the Himalayan orogeny. We also discovered a non-metamorphosed Heklang Formation that rests on the Naudanda Formation, and designated it as a sub-type section on the basis of detailed lithostratigraphic study. It is characterized by black and light green slate with dolerite sills and ill-sorted quartzose sandstone, and correlated to the metamorphosed Dandagaon Phyllites in the Kathmandu area. Non-metamorphosed autochthonous formations distributed to the south of the nappe front suggest that they escaped from thermal metamorphism by hot nappe.     

The Role of India-Asia Collision in the Amalgamation of the Gondwana-Derived Blocks and Deep-Seated Magmatism During the Paleogene at the Himalayan Foreland Basin and Around the Gongha Syntaxis in the South China Block

Southeast Asia comprises collage of continental blocks that were rifted out in phases from the northern parts of the Gondwanic Indo-Australian continent during the Paleozoic-Mesozoic time and were accreted through continental collision process following closure of the Paleo- and Neo-Tethys. The South China and Indo-China blocks were possibly rifted during early Palaeozoic, whereas, the Tibetan and SIBUMASU blocks were rifted during Permo-Carboniferous when the said margin was under glacial and/or cool climatic condition. The Indo-Burma-Andaman (IBA), Sikule, Lolotoi blocks were also rifted from the same Indo-Australian margin but during late Jurassic. This was followed by break-up of the Indian and the Australian continents during early Cretaceous. The opening of the Indian Ocean during the Tertiary was synchronous with closing of the Tethys.India-Asia collision during early-middle Eocene was a mega tectonic event. Apart from initiating the Himalayan orogeny and the eastward strike-slip extrusion of the Indochina block from the Southeast Asian continental collage along the Ailao Shan — Red River shear zone, it also caused early-mid Eocene continental-flood-basalt activity in the Himalayan foreland basin. Indian continent's post-collisional indentation-induced syntaxial buckling of Asian continental collage at its eastern end possibly caused late Paleogene highly potassic magmatism around the Gongha syntaxial area that was located close to the sutured margin of South China continent with Indochina block at the outer fringe of Namche Barwa syntaxis. These magmatic bodies are soon after left-laterally displaced by the Ailao Shan — Red River shear zone. The nature and chemistry of magma at these two settings indicate that both groups result from similar petrogenetic and tectonic processes representing deep-seated melts due to mantle decompression. Some deep faults produced at the edge of flexed Indian continental lithosphere and responsible for the development of the foreland basin may have produced continental-flood-basalt and related magma by decompressional melting of enriched sub-continental mantle. The site-specific location and time sequence of magmatism from the marginal parts of South China continent and located at the outer fringe of Namche Barwa syntaxis are strongly significant. It suggests that these magmatic bodies may also be genetically related to the India-Asia collision process and indentation-induced syntaxial buckling of upper mantle beneath the marginal parts of the South China rigid continent.

Surface displacement estimation using multi-temporal SAR Interferometry in a seismically active region of the Himalaya

The Indian subcontinent is one of the most earthquake-prone regions of the world. The Himalayas are well known for high seismic activity, and the ongoing northwards drift of the Indian plate makes the Himalaya geodynamically active. During the last three decades, several major earthquakes occurred at the plate interiors and boundaries in this subcontinent causing massive losses. Therefore, one of the major challenges in seismology has been to estimate long recurrence period of large earthquakes where most of the classical Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Approaches fail due to short catalogues used in the prediction models. Therefore, during the past few decades, the Himalayan region has been studied extensively in terms of the present ongoing displacements. In this context the present study has been carried out to estimate the surface displacement in a seismically active region of the Himalaya, in between Ganga and Yamuna Tear, using multi-temporal Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Interferometry. A displacement rate of 6.2–8.2 mm/yr in N14°E direction of the Indian plate towards the Tibetan plate has been obtained. It has been noted that the estimated convergence rate using Differential SAR Interferometry technique is relatively low in comparison with those obtained from previous classical studies. The reported low convergence rate may be due to the occurrence of silent/quite earthquakes, aseismic slip, differential movement of Delhi Hardwar ridge, etc. Therefore, in view of the contemporary seismicity and conspicuous displacements, a study of long-term observations of this surface movement has been recommended in future through a time-series SAR Interferometry analysis.
