The study area is located between 101°10＇- 107°00＇E and 28°00＇-30°40′ N. The ancient desert study is so little in China that there has not been a systematic report about it up to now. Based on the study in many ways on Cretaceous-Tertiary deserts in southwestern China, plentiful data have been obtained. Though it is still a bit rough, the study is a good beginning of the ancient desert study in China. The main ideas and conclusions are summarized as follows.展开更多

Areas near Baisa and Rilang in the Gyangze district were chosen for detailed investigation in this study. Three months of field mapping (1∶1000 and 1∶50000) has been followed by laboratory investigation to extract radiolarians from cherty blocks and matrix material. Laboratory work is continuing..Field investigations in the Baisa area near Gyangze indicate the presence of three melange facies:broken formation, matrix\|rich facies, and block\|in\|matrix melange. Broken formation is characterized by disruption of layering by means of boudinage and pinching\|and\|swelling and dispersal of blocks within the finer\|grained shales due to layer\|parallel extension. Broken formation occurs mostly as dispersed but more\|or\|less traceable lenses within a foliated matrix. A transition from broken formation to typical block\|in\|matrix melange is observed in the field. Further disruption of broken formation leads to the formation of typical block\|in\|matrix melange either, by later shearing, or by suspected mud diapirism. Matrix\|rich facies is characterized by a dominance of shale matrix containing small granules of sandstone and other lithologies. This facies commonly is subject to later deformation, with disruption of the primary foliation into sigmoidal structures. Block\|in\|matrix facies is the most common melange facies and is characterized by blocks of different sizes, shapes and lithologies either encased in, or floating on, relatively finer\|grained arenaceous\|argillaceous matrix. Blocks range in size from several centimeters to several hundreds of meters, and have various shapes from phacoidal, elongate, to irregular. The blocks are mainly composed of varicolored cherts, greywacke and limestone as well as igneous rocks including serpentinite and basalt breccia. The matrix is mainly composed of dark argillaceous shales and siliceous shales, and partly of yellowish green greywacke. The injection or intrusion of mud matrix into blocks is quite common in this melange facies.展开更多

With NWW\|SEE trend, Kekexili basin extends along the north side of the Jinshajiang suture. Its sediments, Fenghuoshan group, formed in E 1—E 3, show a shape of wedge with big thickness in south and small thickness in north. There are four sedimentary facies; fan\|delta and alluvial facies that occur in south, lake and lake\|delta facies, which do in north, in this basin. The north\|dipping Jinshajiang normal faults on the south margin of the basin have controlled the developments of the basin. The S—N compression at the end of E3 strongly folded the basin strata and transformed Jinshajiang normal faults into thrusts. In N1, widespread denudation occurred in the whole plateau. During N 2—Q, Kekexili area uplifted along with the whole plateau, besides, the thrusts in the basin showed coherent activity. We propose a geodynamical model for explaining the basin development. In early E,India plate, due to its colliding Eurasia plate, stopped its ocean crust subduction northward, then the subducted ocean lithosphere breaking away made the south margin area, most possibly to the south of Jinshajiang suture, of Eurasia plate isostatically uplift, so the north\|dipping Jinshajiang suture acted as normal faults and controled the north basin development. In late E, the isostatic uplift finished, the basin also gradually terminated its development .At the end of E, Jinshajiang normal faults became thrusts and the basin strata were folded under the northward compression of India plate. In the N1, India plate started incontinental subduction, the lower crust and lower mantle lithosphere of Qinghai—Xizang area underwent more intensive compression and deformation than its upper crust, and the induced transversal expansion in the lower lithosphere uplifted the upper crust and decreased its horizontal stress, which conduced the upper crust undergo denudation. During N 2—Q, convective removal of the lower mantle lithosphere of Qinghai\|Xizang area led to rapid uplift of this area.展开更多
