Abstract

Abstract

Intracontinental deformation is one of the important contents in continental dynamics research. The eastern Sichuan-Wulingshan area is located in the interior of the Yangtze Block, far away from the plate boundary, which is an excellent place to study the intracontinental dynamics. On basis of kinematic analysis of faults, morphological analysis of the folds, and contact relationship of the sedimentary strata in the field, we established the Phanerozoic tectonic architecture and discussed the multiple evolutions of the eastern Sichuan-Wulingshan area. Two tectonic events since the Late Mesozoic have laid the tectonic framework of the study area. The fold deformation differences of the eastern Sichuan-Wulingshan area were fundamentally controlled by the depth and quantity of decollement layers. Folds and faults were formed at the same time. The ridge-like folds in the eastern Sichuan area were the result of single-layer slip deformation, while the fold structures in the Wulingshan area were the result of the exposure of folds at different structural levels by different uplifts and denudations under the multi-layer slip background. Combining with the regional evolution, we proposed a five-stage tectonic evolution model of the eastern Sichuan-Wulingshan area in the Phanerozoic. The first three stages (Late Silurian-Middle Devonian, the end of the Carboniferous, and the Middle-Late Triassic) were dominated by regional uplift, without any folds. Then, large-scale folds and thrusts were developed at the fourth stage in the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous. Ultimately, due to the influence of the convergence of the India continent and Eurasia continent, the slip direction of the fault was reversed and the early structure was strongly reformed in the late Cenozoic.
