Abstract: The sanshui basin, formed in the Huananincro-plate uting Cretaceous and Paleogene,is a typical oneof Mez0-Cnozois relict basins in the Pearl River Delta area, Guangdong Province. The major structuraldeformation in the basin is characterized by a number of small scale extensional faults which are mainlypostdepositional. In this paper, the evolution of the Sanshui basin and its relict fertures, its deformationstyles and trap patterns as well as the perspect of petroleum exploration in this type of basins are dis-cussed based on analyses of structures, strata, depositional envitonments and facies and the maturity ofsource rocks as well as the comparison of strata between the Sanshui basin and its neighbouring area.
