Abstract: The structural setting of the Sichuan Basin in the latter part of the Early Cambrian epoch appears as a sin-gle depression between two uplifts. The climate was hot and dry,favoring the development of gypsum-salt rocks, which characteristics were analyzed in a combination of field profile,drilling section,thin section and regional geo-logical survey. The present study of lithofacies paleogeography of gypsum-salt rocks compares the diverse hydrody-namic characteristics,sedimentary structure,single-layer thickness,development of areal scale and location,and fi-nally establishes a sedimentary model of Early Cambrian gypsum-salt rocks in the Sichuan Basin,with the following results. (1) The gypsum-salt rocks mainly comprise gypsum-bearing dolomite and gypsum rocks from 0.74 m to 419.9 m thick. The sedimentary centers are located in the Chongqing-Hejiang and Lichuan-Pengshui areas. The overall dis-tribution characteristics are "mountain type". (2) The lithological association of gypsum-salt rocks falls into three cat-egories:association of dolomite or mudstone (sand) rocks with gypsum-salt rocks,developed in the upper tidal zone;rhythmically interbedded associations of gypsum-salt rocks and dolomite in relatively shallow,low-lying areas in the upper tidal zone;and the association of gypsum-salt rocks with dolomite or shale in deeper depressions with re-stricted circulation in the upper-to inter-tidal zone. (3) In multiple-lagoons (one main lagoon and two subsidiary la-goons),the gypsum-salt rocks were formed mainly in static lagoons in southeastern Sichuan,with two subsidiary la-goons in disturbed lagoons in eastern Sichuan and in mixed tidal depressions in southwestern Sichuan.
