Structural Characteristics of the Yushuwan Fault in the Northeastern Ordos Basin: Implications for Basin Tectonics and Hydrocarbon Exploration
ENERGY EXPLORATION & EXPLOITATION(2023)
摘要
The Yushuwan fault is located in the transition zone among the Yimeng uplift, Jinxi fold belt and Shanbei slope in the northeastern Ordos basin and marks the boundary between Palaeozoic and Mesozoic strata. According to the field geological survey and geophysical data, this study shows that the Yushuwan fault is a deep-cut northwest-southeast-oriented strike-slip basement fault. A total of 17 apatite and zircon fission track points show that the basin experienced several stages of uplift at 190 Ma, 150-170 Ma, 110-130 Ma, 60-80 Ma, and 20-40 Ma. The characteristics of the Yushuwan fault indicate that the northeastern part of the basin is not a simple slope but rather a step with a large drop. Therefore, in the area to the southwest of the Yushuwan fault, there should be high natural gas resource potential and good exploration prospects. The contour values of the magnetic anomaly on the southwestern side of the fault are high, and the contours are dense; in contrast, the contour values of the northwest magnetic anomaly are low, and the gradient is gentle. Therefore, the fault represents the eastern boundary of the Yimeng uplift, and restricts the eastward extent of the high magnetic anomaly zone in the Yimeng uplift area.
