Sun Ziming, He Zhiliang, Mou Zehui. Structural features and favorable exploration areas in southern margin of Junggar basin[J]. 2004, 25(2): 216-221.DOI: 10.11743/ogg20040217.
are identified in the southern margin of Junggar basin based on analysis of structural evolution and seismic interpretation in this area and adjacent area. According to the spatial distribution of these structural styles
the E-W segmentation and S-N zonation of structural deformations
vertical differences of deformations
as well as deformational features of strike-slip wrench movement and their extending patterns have been studied. This area has favorable hydrocarbon accumulation conditions
and the control of structures on hydrocarbons is remarkable. The favorable exploration areas include fault related folds in piedmont thrust zones
anticlinal structures in the footwalls of piedmont thrusts and the anticlinal structures in the outer zone of piedmont thrust belt.
