TECTONIC CHARACTERISTICS IN THE PINGXIANG AREA IN THE JUNCTION BELT BETWEEN THE YANGTZE PLATE AND SOUTH CHINA PLATE

The junction belt between the Yangtze plate and South China plate passes central Jiangxi. Since the end of the Yanshanian movement, nappe-thrusting predominated in the northern part of the Pingxiang area in the junction belt, forming large-scale thrust nappe structure, in its southern part a metamorphic-magmatic thermal dome and a series of glide fold zones and glide block structures formed under the action of gravitational gliding;and in the central part the junction belt of the stacked southern and northern structures formed.Coal measures are covered by these thrust nappes and glide nappes in many areas.This opens up a new sphere for looking for hidden coal fields.Furthermore, the junction belt is also a favorable cobalt polymetallic ore region.
