The Baicheng () piggy-back basin was part of the intracontinental foreland basin system of southern Tianshan () Mountains. It was formed on a thrust-and-fold belt induced by Mio-Pliocene collision between southern Tianshan Mountains and Tarim craton that controlled the thick synorogenic basin fills. Sedimentological analysis and a restored cross-section based on seismic data and field studies revealed three tectono-depositional sequences of synorogenic basin fills. (1) The Lower Miocene sequence (Jidike ( Formation) was formed under alluvial-braided river-lacustrine environments, in response to geodynamic changes of the Kuqa () fold and thrust belt from the embryonic foreland to a foredeep in the course of orogenic loading period. (2) The Upper Miocene sequence (Kangcun () Formation) was developed in fluvial-delta and lacustrine environments, within a foredeep due to orogenic thrust. (3) The Pliocene sequence (Kuqa Formation) was formed in the Baicheng piggy-back basin that became a wedge-top depozone, thrusting in the Qiulitagh () thrust belt that propagated progressively southward to the Yaken () thrust belt.
