The large scale Eogene basalts lying on the basement of the Bohaiwan basin belong to alkaline series and subalkaline series. The basalt magma originates at a depth of 48-76 km and a temperature of 1 300-1 400 ℃ with the mantle partial melting degree of 8%-14%. In Eogene period, the rising of the top of asthenosphere from 100-140 km to 50-70 km led to the strong extension and thinning of the overlying lithosphere, which was stretched at an average rate of 0.41 cm/a and the β value from 1.9 to 2.3. At the same time, it triggered the great scale rifting in the earth crust, forming large rift basins.展开更多
