摘要
通过12个构造岩、变质砂岩和花岗岩样品的磷灰石裂变径迹测年年龄分析,结合前人研究成果,初步确定了青藏高原东缘龙门山地区晚新生代主要断裂活动时期和区域隆升历史。结果表明,龙门山逆冲推覆构造带2条主断裂:汶川—茂县断裂和映秀—北川断裂,最晚一次强烈活动发生在早更新世(FT年龄为1.2~1.3 Ma),高原内部北西向米亚罗断裂在中更新世(约0.5 Ma)发生过强烈活动;后龙门山逆冲推覆构造带在中新世晚期开始快速隆升,而高原内部强烈隆升发生在上新世末至中更新世。高原隆升导致深切河谷地貌的形成和发育。
Twelve samples of tectonites,metasediments and granites taken from the western Sichuan Plateau were dated in this study by apatite fission track dating method.The results are used to reconstruct uplifting history and fault activity of the Longmenshan tectonic belt in eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau.It is shown that the recent activity of the two major boundary faults: theWenchuan-Maowen fault and the Yingxiu-Beichuan fault,occurred in early Pleistocene(FT ages of 1.2 ~ 1.3 Ma);the Miyaluo fault developed in the interior of the plateau was strongly active in middle Pleistocene(around 0.5 Ma);the back Longmenshan tectonic zone started to uplift in Miocene;and the interior of the plateau began rapid uplift in latest Pliocene to Middle Pleistocene.The uplifting of the plateau caused formation of deep-incised river morphology.
