西藏谢通门斯弄多地区新生代逆冲推覆构造的基本特征

    Cenozoic thrusting nappe structure in the Si Nongduo area, Xie Tongmen, Tibet, China

    • 摘要: 谢通门县斯弄多地区发育大型新生代逆冲推覆构造,逆冲断层面倾向200°左右,断层倾角15~25°。逆冲断层上盘主要由上石炭统昂杰组灰岩、白云质灰岩构成,形成陡峭高耸的推覆前缘断崖;下盘以始新统年波组火山岩为主。断层全长约60km,断层带宽2~3km。逆冲推覆上盘推覆体向北北东方向滑移,根据飞来峰的相对位置估算,推覆体推覆距离约15km。逆冲推覆构造的形成可能与印度板块向北俯冲导致冈底斯地区强烈的陆内挤压作用有关。

       

      Abstract: There are large Cenozoic thrusting nappe structure in the Si Nongduo area, Xie Tongmen, Tibet. Dipping direction of the thrust plane is about 200° and dip angle is about 15~ 25°. The upper wall is made up of Carboniferous Anji limestone and dolomitic limestone, forming towering steep cliff on the nappe front. The lower wall is mainly comprised of volcanic rocks from nianbo formation of Eocene. The fault zone is approximately 60km in length and 2~3km in width. According to the relative position of klippe, the upper nappe is estimated to slip is about 15km toward northeast. It is supposed that the Indian plate subducting northward strongly pressed the Gangdise area, which caused the formation of this thrusting nappe structure.
