Abstract：The essential of nappe and slumped overthrust is detachment surface, which stretches along weak formation. The former was generated by the tectonic force,and the latter by the gravity- Nappe has two types:fold nappe and overthrust nappe. The fold nappe usually appears in plastic formation,its fault surface and fold structure were created simultaneously. The overthrust nape was mostly caused in fragile and half fragile formations, lts overthrust mass had not undergone any folding yet. Slumped overthrust was formed because sedimentary mass moved along tilting slope (detachment surface)of a subsiding basin.
