    摘要:

    青藏高原东缘古近纪盆地的填图和沉积学研究表明,在青藏高原东缘区域性走滑-挤压构造背景下形成的古近纪盆地内广泛发育厚层—巨厚层状的紫红色粗碎屑岩系。其沉积特征指示为一种近源快速堆积的泥石流和辫状河道沉积体,形成于干旱炎热气候条件下的典型陆内冲积扇环境。盆地充填序列、粗碎屑岩层序、动植物化石和盆地内岩浆岩~(40)Ar-~(39)Ar年代学等综合研究结果表明,古近纪盆地内粗碎屑岩大约形成于38~29 Ma。该时期与青藏高原东缘北段(横断山地区)古近纪盆地的形成和南段(兰坪—思茅地区)大盆地的裂解时间基本一致,这很可能预示着青藏高原在晚始新世—早渐新世期间曾发生过整体的快速构造隆升。

    Abstract:

    Field mapping and sedimentologic investigations of Paleogene basins in eastern Tibet suggest that the depositional characteristics of widespread thick-bedded, purplish red, coarse-grained clastic series of Paleogene basins in the setting of regional strike-slipping and thrusting indicate that the series is a proximal and rapid-accumulating sediment body in debris flows and a fan-surface braided river in a typical dry and hot subaerial alluvial fan environment. The sequences of basin filling and coarse clastic rocks, fauna and sporopollen associations and 40Ar/39Ar dating confirm that the coarse clastic rocks formed in Paleogene basins in the period of 38 ~ 29 Ma, nearly coeval with the formation of the Paleogene basins in the northern segment (Hengduanshan area) and the disintegration of large basins in the southern segment (Lanping - Simao area). The sedimentologic characteristics of the Paleogene coarse-grained clastic rocks, basin tectonics and magmatic activity indicate that a rapid wholesale tectonic uplift may have occurred in the Tibetan Plateau from the Late Eocene to Early Oligocene.
