The deep-lake facies of the Yanchang Formation represents a large outflowing lake basin in the Ordos area. Its deposition can be divided into four stages lake genetic and expanding stage, peak stage, inversion stage and dying stage. All the stages are obviously consistent with the evolution of depositional environment and the paleoclimate in the region. The study indicates that the lake basin has evolution fluctuations from highstand to lowstand for four times in its evolution history, and the deposition center of the lake has not obviously moved, staying along the Huachi-Yijun belt. The deep lake sedimentary system mainly consists of deep water deltas and turbidite fans during the entire evolution course of the lake basin in the Late Triassic. The former mainly developed on the slope of steep shore of the delta in the early period of the deep-water expansion and gradually experienced a big shift from deep-water deltas to shallow-water platform delta. And the latter appeared almost in all the above stages and had two types of turbidite fans, slope-moving turbidite fans and slump turbidite fans. The slope-moving turbidite fans have relatively complete facies belts overlapping one another vertically and consist of the slope channel of inter fans, the turbidite channel, inter turbidite channel and turbidite channel front of middle fans and outer fans (or lakebottom plain). However, the slide-moving turbidity fans are formed in the deep lake with their microfacies difficult to be distinguished, and only the center microfacies and edge microfacies can be determined. The two types of the turbidity fans are similarly distributing in the near-root-slope and far-root-slope regions. The deep-lake deposition governs the distribution of the hydrocarbon and reservoir, while the slope-moving turbidite fans are excellent reservoirs for oil-gas exploration due to their great thickness, widespread distribution and accumulation properties. 相似文献

The Asian monsoon-arid environment system began to develop during the Oligocene, but the exact position of the arid zone boundary is uncertain in the Oligocene. Fossil mammal assemblages can be used to assess the environment of an area. There were two sizes of mammals in the Nanpoping fauna from the Oligocene strata of the Lanzhou Basin: the small ones were grassland rodents such as Ctenodactylidae; the large ones were forest dwellers such as Paraceratherium and Paraentelodon. Of the 23 species of mammals identified in the Nanpoping fauna, ~40% were forest dwellers and the rest (~60%) were grassland taxa. The Nanpoping fauna was compared with the contemporaneous Dingdanggou fauna in the Danghe area to the north and Jiaozigou fauna in the Linxia area to the south. The Nanpoping fauna contains elements of both other faunas and thus represents a transitional assemblage between forest and grassland. So, it can be inferred that the southern boundary of the arid zone in China during the Oligocene was probably near the Lanzhou Basin. 相似文献
