Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The research area is situated in the western part of Tarim basin. It can be divided into Bachu block uplift and Awati depression by Tumuxiuke fault belt. The study of geometry, kinematics and geodynamics of Tumuxiuke fault belt show that the Tumuxiuke fault belt is a dextral reversed strike-slip fault which formed along the axial surfaces of the fault band fold or fault propagation fold. It destructed the early structures and controlled the formation and development of Bachu block uplift and Awati depression. Tumuxiuke fault belt was formed from Tertiary, and caused by the remote effect of India-Tibet collision. Up to now it has been activity.
