Analysis of the deep tectonics and cover tectonic deformations shows that tectonic layering motion is a typical lithospheric characteristic in the Tongling area and the metallogenic belt of the middle-lower Yangtze. Controlling of the deep tectonosphere over the shallow-seated tectonosphere involves various grades of tectonic layering motions. Multi-layer, multi-grade, and multi-directional gliding tectonics are the specific modes of tectonic layering motions in the cover of the Tongling metallogenic cluster. The gliding tectonics developed based on S-shaped folds of the Indosinian, and was continuously active in the Yanshanian. They correspond to the deformation systems of the EW and NNE extensions. The control of tectonic layering motion acts against ore-forming processes, the different interlayer gliding belts can easily form different genetic-type deposits, and the ore-forming features of different parts of the same gliding layer are different. All of these characters are closely related to tectonic gliding mechanisms, tectonic compounding characteristics, features of metallogenic wall rocks, and types of ore-forming hydrothermal solutions.
