Abstract The Huaiyuan Movement is an important tectonic event in the early Paleozoic of the North China Platform,resulting in a regional unconformity. Based on outcrop data,geological maps,drilling data and new seismic data,the identification marks,types and distributions of unconformities formed during the Huaiyuan movement in the Ordos Basin were analyzed. The results show that(1)sandy conglomerate and weathered crust developed near the unconformity surface;additionally,high acoustic time,high gamma values,high content of trace elements(U,Th and K),high thorium-uranium ratios,low resistivity,and low density of logging curves occurred near the unconformity surface. The seismic response of the unconformity is characterized by a strong phase,and there are obvious differences in amplitude intensity,frequency and continuity in the wave groups on both sides of the unconformity. In addition,the truncation point reflections can be observed in local domain. (2)The Huaiyuan movement caused both parallel-unconformity and low-angle cutting unconformity in the basin. The former was widely distributed in the basin and its periphery areas,and the latter was distributed near the paleo-uplift in the basin. (3)The Ordos Basin and its periphery areas were affected by three stages of the Huaiyuan tectonic movement: during the depositional period of the Zhangxia Formation in the Middle Cambrian,uplift first occurred in the southeast region of the basin and then moved to the northwest direction;at the end of the Sanshanzi Formation deposition period in the late Cambrian,paleo-uplifts developed in the basin,and they were subjected to erosion; at the end of the late Cambrian, before the Ordovician Majiagou Formation was deposited,the negative drift of carbon isotopes first occurred in the bottom layer of Majiagou Formation due to the influence of global sea level decline. These results provides a reference for the research of new fields of oil and gas exploration in Lower Paleozoic in the Ordos Basin.
