Abstract:

Seismite is a type of catastrophic deposits. The characteristics and geological significance of seismites are summarized. The rock types, seismic sequences, distinguishing marks of seismites and the contrasts among seismites, tsunamites and seismoturbidites are introduced. Based on the former research, six seismic sequences are proposed, which are composed of seismites, tsunamites, seismoturbidites and background deposits. Seismites take a significant part in the studies on the interpretation of tectonic evolution, sedimentology and reservoir geology.

Key words: Tarimpaleo-plate, Yangtze paleo-plate, Tarim-Yangtze Paleocontinent, mantle plume, inorganic petroleum
