Abstract

This paper discusses the origin and development of the Zhujiang Delta on the basis of the analyses of the fault systems, lithofacies, depositional thickness, ancient coastline and ¹⁴C dating.We consider that the delta is a multi-faulting block, whose external form, internal structure and configuration of its ancient coastline are all strictly controlled by three active sets of the NE, NW and WE faults.
