By interpreting remote sensing image of Wenchuan earthquake region from Beijing-1 Microsatellite Sensors data

there are a series of NW trending faults which ruptured the belt of Longmen shan faults at a length of 90—110 km

and this phenomenon has been conf irmed partly in f ield. We suggest that Longmen shan faults may show a NS trending faults

the same as Anninghe-Xiaojiang faults before Himalayan orogeny. India began colliding with Eurasia over 50 million years ago

this plate collision makes Tibetan plateau uplift rapidly and elevate the highest mountains in the world and thus attributed the area of the high plateau to eastward-moving along large-scale slip-striking faults

and the mechanically strong lithosphere of the Sichuan Basin obstructs it eastward in Longmen Shan region

thrust and strike slip faulting occur. These faults gradually translate from NNE to NE to NEE from south to north and form the structural pattern which we saw in remote sensing image of Longmen Shan region. If these faults can be validated in the further study in the future

it will provide new ideas to solve many geologic questions

including the reasonable explanations about seismic mechanism of Wenchuan Ms8.0

rupture segmentation of active deformation zones of Longmen Shan fault zones

the transformation of the coseismic displacement that reverse and right-slip components are of comparable magnitude along the southwestern portion of the rupture

but right-slip dominates the northeastern portion of the rupture.
