“…The Late Jurassic thrust faults and folds underwent extensionally reactivated through the Late Cretaceous and Paleogene rifting events, after the Early Cretaceous thermal doming (Mei et al, ; Wu, Mei, Liu, et al, ). The driving mechanism of the rifting events was the active upwelling of upper mantle induced by a combination of the rollback of the Pacific slab and India‐Asia collision (Li et al, , Li, Zhu, et al, ; Liu et al, ; Wu, Mei, Liu, et al, , Wu, Mei, Paton, et al, ). During the Paleogene, the rift‐related faults in the North Jianghan Basin gradually aborted while most faults in the central and South Jianghan Basin were further extensionally reactivated with some newly reactivated faults (Wu, Mei, Liu, et al, , Wu, Mei, Paton, et al, ).…”
