On the basis of studies of source area, palaeoclimate, palaeo water property and palaeo water depth, the sedimentary facies and sedimentary systems were discussed. Seven types of sedimentary facies were distinguished from the Jurassic of Yanqi Basin. According to the location and genetic relationship among these facies, four kinds of sedimentary systems were concluded, including braided river, braided delta and lake system, alluvial fan, fan delta and lake system, clastic flow trench and turbidite fan system and shore lake
plain and swamp system. Further more, the distribution features and evolution of sedimentary systems were described
