Abstract:Fractural characteristics, structural evolution characteristics and the formation mechanism of northern slope of Bamianhe area in Dongying depression have been studied. Fault distribution characteristics, activity and the evolution of northern slope in this area have been clearly illustrated. Furthermore, the structural deformation characteristic has been analyzed as well. It is showed that there were two independent systems of tectonic deformation existed in Bamianhe area after the Mesozoic era. One is interaction force in the edge of the plate, the other is the traction force which was generated in the mantle diapir applying on the bottom of the lithosphere because of continuous plate subduction. Therefore, the north of the Bamianhe area showed different characteristics of structural deformation in different periods with the combination of the two tectonic forces.
