Abstract

This paper describes the deformational feature of the DayudongJiudianpingLongxi gliding nappe in the PengGuau area, western Sichuan. It divides the nappe into two subglidingnappes which are connected with each other laterally. The north subnappe consists of a number of folded superposed little nappes. The south subnappe also shows a superposition feature, but no folds are found. The gliding nappe comes from the east of the YingxiuBeichuan fault zone. The gliding movements worked under the loose geodynamic environment after compression during Mesozoic.
