Abstract

Abstract

Guided by theories of plate tectonics and based on the result of geological map compilation (1∶1,000,000), the authors have first divided the tectonic units in China-Mongolia border area. In this area, the main bodies of grade I tectonic units belong to the Altay-Xingmeng orogenic system of the Central Asian Orogenic belt, while the other parts belong to the Tarim-North China block domain. The tectonic units include 10 gradeⅡunits, 27 grade Ⅲ units, and 69 grade Ⅳ units for the Altay-Xingmeng orogenic system, and include 2 gradeⅡunits, 2 grade Ⅲ units and 4 grade Ⅳ units for the part of Tarim-North China blocks in this area. These tectonic units comprehensively generalize the geological features of the China-Mongolia border area.
