This paper mainly adopts the methods of literature research and is based on the comparative study of the geological structure of Longnan area at home and abroad, which gives an introduction and com- ment of regional tectonics of Longnan on the domestic argumentation concerning tectonic setting, history of the tectonic evolution, regional structure and current activity of fault. What’s more, the riverine areas of Chouni River were tested and studied by geophysical prospecting. We found Luo- Jiabu-Mudan fault, which is a new secondary fault of LiXian-LuoJiabao fault with a certain angle, that the length is about 20 km, the overall trend is NNW28˚, the fault composed of the nearly three parallel faults, and the activity of fault is strong.
