This paper plots out two deep distribution maps of the China continental crustal and upper mantle conductive layers, and discusses the origin of two kinds of conductive layers, based on the results of the magnetotelluric(MT) sounding research made by Chinese scientists in the last two decades. The MT prospecting shows that the conductive layers possibly exist in upper mantle and middle-lower crust in the Mesozoic and Cenozoic stretching basins, and they coincide with the uplifting of two kinds of conductive layers. These characteristics help to illustrate the deep dynamic settings that control the basin evolution.展开更多

Those layers are interpreted as detachment and rheology, which represent some features of lithosphere, asthenosphere and Moho, and related to the crust-mantle structure of the continent in the study area. The differences of the crust-mantle structures in different places in the study area reflect the differences in the movement and evolution of asthenosphere, lithosphere and crust. The differences can be summarized as follows. (1) Along the south profile of MT, the buried depth of the surface of Moho is 31 ～34 km beneath the Liaohe Basin and 35～37 km beneath the west Liaoning area. Along the north profile of MT, the buried depth of Moho is 32～33 km beneath Changtu area and 36～37 km beneath Kailu area in southern Songliao Basin. The buried depth beneath the central of the Songliao Basin is 29 km.(2) The difference of thickness of lithosphere exists in the south area and the north area of Chifeng-Kaiyuan fault. The thickness of lithosphere is about 65～120 km in the south of the fault, thickening from east to west. The top surface of asthenosphere is highly uplifted in the Liaohe Basin and the highest point is about 65 km in buried depth. The thickness of lithosphere in the north of the fault is about 60～65 km, thinner about 25 km than that in the south of the fault (West Liaoning). Deep processes such as upwelling of mantle thermal flow, extension of lithosphere, underplating, and thinning and subsidence of crust, evidenced from the crust-mantle structures were the direct forces of the basin formation in the study area during the Mesozoic-Cenozoic.展开更多
