Shangyi Basin was formed in the Early Jurassic to Early Cretaceous and mainly deposited a set of purple and celadon terrigenous clastic rocks，with a suit of thinner basaltic andesitic volcanic rock only found in the strata of the Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous. The provenance，catchment center and palaeoclimate were analysed through the systematic analysis of the sedimentary rocks, distribution characteristcs of sedimentary facies, palaeocurent，gravel components etc., and a evolution model of palaeogeography of Shangyi Basin was reconstructed. Meanwhile，based on previous study results，combining with the depositional and filling pattern of Shangyi Basin，the characteristics of peperite，dolerite and boundary faults were summarized and analysed，and Shangyi Basin was deduced to be an extensional faulted basin during the Late Jurassic to the Early Cretaceous.
