Cenozoic evolution of the Yangjiang-Yitong’ansha fault zone in the northern South China Sea: Evidence from 3D seismic data

The Yanjiang-Yitong’ansha Fault Zone (YYFZ) traverses the Pearl River Mouth Basin (PRMB) and plays an essential role in basin formation and hydrocarbon accumulation in the PRMB. Because of the lack of seismic data, its distribution, evolution, and effect on the basin evolution in the Cenozoic are po...
