    • The Emeishan basalts are typical rocks of the Yangtze River basin because of their unique origin, the broad distribution and simplicity of identification, which can be used as an indicator of tracing the source of the upstream Yangtze sediments after cutting of the Three Gorges. The gravel and debris (between 1-2 mm) of basalts in the sediments of the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze terraces(above Fuling City) and the Quaternary sediments of the Zhoulao core in the Jianghan Plain are mainly studied in the article. The gravels of the lithic basalts are abundant in the floodplain sediments and the terrace deposits along the upper reach of the river (upstream of Fuling City), and are rare along the downstream of the Three Gorges. The basalt debris are very common on the terraces of the upper reach of the Yangtze River, and are also evaluated by the loose sediments of the Zhoulao core. These lithic debris were identified as the Emeishan basalts by LA-ICP-MS and appear at the core depth of 156 m (up). This line of change (156 m depth) dated of about 1.7 Ma attests a provenance change. Meanwhile, a wide drainage basin similar as today's dimension of the Yangtze River had formed and the Three Gorges had formed around 1.7 Ma.
