Abstract: Lacustrine sediments in Bulunkou area of West Kunlun Mountains in Akto County is linearly distributes along Muji River in nearly SN-NW direction,it is obviously controlled by neotectonics and forms early sedimentary formation in linear fault zones.Through 1∶50 000 regional geological survey,it is found that this formation is the main body of nowaday high-based Muji River terrace.Trough some relevant sections,tt is the first time to acquire its OSL(optically stimulated luminescence) dating age of (55.5±8.6)~(94.8±9.7)ka,which can provide reliable reference for the study of neotectonics in the area.

Key words: Optical stimulated luminescence (OSL) , Late Pleistocene, Neotectonics, Geological significance
