摘要
当惹雍错-许如错南北向地堑位于青藏高原冈底斯中部,由一组南北向高角度正断层与夹其中间的当穹错、当惹雍错、许如错等3个湖泊盆地构成.地堑发育于中新世晚期,一直活动到全新世.沿着地堑边缘分布中新世碱性火山岩.白榴石响岩的K-Ar年龄为12.6Ma,其岩石化学特征显示出陆内伸展构造环境.地堑内部发育晚更新世至全新世的湖相沉积物.当惹雍错-许如错地堑是在青藏高原板内构造隆升过程中,层流加厚的下地壳热垫作用导致上地壳发生伸展作用,随着青藏高原地壳物质的东流,南北向伸展作用转向东西向伸展作用,形成近南北走向的地堑.
The Dangra Yun Co and Xuru Co NS-trending graben located at central section of the Gangdese, is controlled by NS- trending high-angle normal faults and consists of the Dangqung Co, Dangra Yun Co and Xuru Co. Miocene alkali volcanic rock distributed along the graben indicates an intraplate extensional tectonic environment by its petrochemical and geochemical analyses. A 12.6 Ma age is determined for leueite phonolite by the K-Ar method, and it is found that graben occurred at the late time of Miocene (about 13 Ma), and remained active until Holocene. There are Middle Pliocene to Holocene lacustrine deposits in the graben. The Dangra Yun Co and Xuru Co graben, as well as other NS-trending grabens, is the results of extension of upper crust driven by the thermal upderplating of the lower crust flowing and thickening. S-N extension became E-W extension with the change of flow direction in the lower crust.
