    Abstract:

    The geometrical deformation and tectonic evolution vary with different structural belts in the eastern segment of Kuqa depression. Based on the newest seismic data interpretation achievements,geometrical tectonic deformation characteristics of Tugerming and eastern Qiulitag tectonic zones located in the eastern segment of Kuqa depression were contrasted. On this basis,combined with the characteristics of growth strata and the transformation of regional dynamic environment,differential evolutional process and control factors of the two structural belts were investigated. The results show that the Tugerming tectonic belt is a faulted anticline developed above the hanging wall that is based on the Paleozoic uplift and basement-involved fault,which suffered tectonic reconstruction. There are few salt structures developed in Tugerming structural zone,and the whole deformations are relatively homogeneous. While the major tectonic deformation of eastern Qiulitage mainly occurred in the Neogene and salt structures are well developed,and hierarchical shrinked structural deformations are significant. The main factors leading to this difference are the size of tectonic stress,pre-existing structure and original thickness of salt rock.
