Tarim basin rifted from the northwest margin of East Gondwana supercontinent and drifted to Laurentia supercontinent during the period from Cambrian to Triassic. While its north margin is passive continental environment and south mainly is back arc foreland basin or uplift as a result of different blocks or terranes accretion. First order sequences, regional uncomformity events and tectonic evolution of secondary tectonic units in Tarim basin all related to tectonic activity in plate boundary and change of plate motion track. Compressional orogeny along plate boundary caused uplifts in the basin and significant change of lithofacies paleogeography framework. Carboniferous strata were erosioned in dome shape and uplifted by vertical activity of mantle plume, which led to the large igneous provinces in the early Permian. Tarim superimposed basin, product of multi prototype bains in small blocks composited in the different periods, differed from that in the other plates with no vertical composite influenced by variations in the lateral migration. Tarim block is smaller than other global typical craton basins, underwent tectonic reworking intensely because of the collision with adjacent blocks ,such as Kazakhstan/Altyn-Qilian and Qiangtang block, with strong tectonic deformation extending from magin to the inside.
