In company with uplifting and northward extruding of the Tibetan plateau, the contractional tectonic deformations persistently spread outward, building a gigantic basin-range system around the Tibetan plateau. This system is herein termed as the Cir- cure-Tibetan Plateau Basin-Range System, in which the global largest diffuse and the most energetic intra-continental defor- mations were involved, and populations of inheritance foreland basins or thrust belts were developed along the margins of an- cient cratonic plates due to the effects of the cratonic amalgamation, crust differentiation, orogen rejuvenation, and basin sub- sidence. There are three primary tectonic units in the Circum-Tibet Plateau Basin-Range System, which are the reactivated an- cient orogens, the foreland thrust belts, and the miniature cratonic basins. The Circum-Tibetan Plateau Basin-Range System is a gigantic deformation system and particular Himalayan tectonic domain in central-western China and is comparable to the Tibetan Plateau. In this system, northward and eastward developments of thrust deformations exhibit an arc-shaped area along the Kunlun-Altyn-Qilian-Longmenshan mountain belts, and further expand outward to the Altai-Yinshan-Luliangshan- Huayingshan mountain belts during the Late Cenozoic sustained collision of Indo-Asia. Intense intra-continental deformations lead ancient orogens to rejuvenate, young foreland basins to form in-between orogens and cratons, and thrusts to propagate from orogens to cratons in successive order. Driven by the Eurasia-Indian collision and its far field effects, both deformation and basin-range couplings in the arc-shaped area decrease from south to north. When a single basin-range unit is focused on, deformations become younger and younger together with m展开更多

The "truncation and onlap" unconformities and superimposing styles of overlying and underlying strata vary under different tectonic settings. Under extensional settings, there are three basic superimposing styles and unconformities, such as parallel superimposing style and unconformity with breaking outward, parallel superimposing style and unconformity with breaking inward, as well as superimposing and unconformity style with rotation. Under compressional settings, there are four basic types, such as overlap superimposing style and unconformity on fold, syn-depositional fold superimposing style and unconformity, anticline-syncline superimposing style and unconformity, as well as superimposing style and unconformity in overlap-filling incised valley on top of folds. "Truncation and onlap" unconformities always superimposed each other in space, and exhibit three kinds of superimposed unconformities, i.e., superimposed unconformities formed under continuous uplifting, under transition of uplifting, and under propagation of deposition center. They may also change with time too, i.e., tilting, rotating, folding, and migration. Controlled by the migration of basin depocenters, it is shown that there are unconformities formed under the transition of paleogeomorphy or subsidence center, under the migration of fault-sag, and under the slipping of detachment fault. "Truncation and onlap" unconformities are important positions for traps and significant pathways for hydrocarbon migration, and they are favorable sites for ore deposit and resources occurrence.展开更多
