The Tectonics Structure in the Middle of China and Their Stress Analysis

Through the stress synthesis of many examples of macrostructure in the middle of China, it can be concluded that in the middle of Chinese tectonics there are two compression-torsion- forces, one of which ( from NW to SE ) came from the northwest side of Aerjinshan abyssal and giant fault("F1A", see Fig.7,8,9 ); the other (from S to N ) came from the south side of the north piedmontal fault of Kunlunshan-the south piedmontal fault of Qinlingshan ("F2K-F2Q", see Fig-7,829 )._x000D_
Owing to the two compression torsion forces a new special type of structure named rotation-apart structure occurred from Chaidamu basin to Hebai, Henan, Anhui plain,from Caledonian movement, Hercynian movement,Yenshan movement to Himalayan movement, step by step In the north of Qilianshan during the late Caledonian movement: during the Hercynian movement it extended into a vast area including the Chaidamu basin and Eerduosi basin; during the Yenshan movement it spread over the whole area of Helanshan,Eerduosi basin and Hebai , Henan, Anhui plain. In the period of Himalayan movement all these structures revived ._x000D_
The rotation-apart structure controlled the distribution of all mineral deposits and also were the mineralizing structures._x000D_
The relation between these rotation-apart structure and earthquakes is very close.
