A systematic finite strain measurement and analysis with Rf/φ method has been conducted throughout the Guposhan-Huashan granitic batholith and its thermal contact metamorphic country rocks, for totally a number of 15,000 strain markers at 153 field stations. The results show that: (1) The country rocks and early emplaced intrusions and intrusive units such as Niumiao and Yangmeishan intrusions, and Lisong and Wanggao units are dominantly characterized by flattening strain, whereas the lately emplaced Xinlu unit by constrictional strain; (2) The mean strain intensities and compression rates of the batholith are less than that of the country rocks. The older intrusions and intrusive units show higher mean strain intensities and compression rates than the younger ones. There clearly exists a strain intensity gradient and compression rate gradient within the country rocks so that both strain intensity and compression rate increase toward the contact surface. The thermally metamorphosed country rocks of dominantly carbonates on the south side of the batholith show higher compression rate than the thermally metamorphosed country rocks of mainly clastic rocks on its north side; and (3) Within the country rocks the long axes of strain ellipsoids measured next to the batholith contact are mostly parallel to the contact surface. The long axes of strain ellipsoids measured next to each intrusive contact within each intrusive unit are also apparently parallel to its contact surface. Their short strain axes mostly make near right angle with the contacts. In contrast, the ellipsoids measured in the central area of each intrusive unit show no preferred orientation but a random order. It is suggested that these strain characteristics and strain patterns were result of repeated strain superposition due to multi-pulse emplacement of granitic magmas, and that the prolonged, repeated deformation of the country rocks and the early intrusive units was caused by magmatic internal force. Obviously the deformation was achieved by means of radial compression (or push) associated with the multi-pulse magma ascent and emplacement.
