geological conditions

The general evolution trend of the geological structure in Zhouning county is from instability to stability to activity, and it goes through three stages: geosyncline, paraplatform and active belt near the Pacific continental margin.

The strata in Zhouning county are widely exposed, accounting for about four fifths of the total land area. It is mainly composed of pyroclastic rock series of Mesozoic Upper Jurassic and lower Cretaceous, metamorphic rock series of Upper Sinian Lower Paleozoic and quaternary pluvial alluvium.

The crust structure of Zhouning county is located in the northwest end of the volcanic fault depression belt in the south of South China fold system. The crustal structure profile in Fujian Province is the result of the occurrence, development and evolution of the crustal structure. It has experienced three development stages: Late Proterozoic Early Paleozoic geosyncline evolution stage, Late Devonian Middle Triassic paraplatform stage, Late Triassic Cenozoic active belt near the Pacific continental margin, forming the basic structural pattern that Zhouning Hua'an volcanic basement fault uplift belt runs through the central and eastern part of the county, and Pingnan Meilin fault depression belt passes through the western part of Chunchi and Siqiao line .

The upper Jurassic Nanyuan formation Lower Cretaceous Shimaoshan group and Yanshanian granite are widely exposed in the Zhouning Hua'an fault uplift belt. The basement strata are exposed with Upper Sinian Lower Paleozoic granulite, gneiss and amphibolite schist. The Pingnan Meilin fault depression belt is mainly composed of Upper Jurassic Bantou formation, Nanyuan formation and lower Cretaceous Shimaoshan group, with less magmatic intrusion. The structural traces in the two belts are mainly in the form of faults, and fold structures are not developed. The fault structure is mainly NE trending, followed by NW trending, and a small amount of EW and Sn trending. The NE trending faults are mostly compression torsion faults with dip angle of 70-80 degrees, length of 6-16 kilometers, width of tens of centimeters to 20 meters, including Chunchi fault, daguoyang fault, xiaoguoyang fault, Makeng fault, etc.; the NW trending faults are torsion compression torsion faults with dip angle of several hundred meters to 6 Gongli, including Xiancun fault, Hexi fault, Siqiao fault, etc.; the EW and NS trending faults are relatively small It is rare.
