摘　　要： The present paper describes the characteristics of Cenozoic basalt in the Bohaiwan basin and its implication of the control of deep process over the basin evolution. The large scale Eogene basalts lying on the basement of the Bohaiwan basin belong to alkaline series and subalkaline series. The basalt magma originates at a depth of 48-76 km and a temperature of 1 300-1 400 ℃ with the mantle partial melting degree of 8%-14%. In Eogene period, the rising of the top of asthenosphere from 100-140 km to 50-70 km led to the strong extension and thinning of the overlying lithosphere, which was stretched at an average rate of 0.41 cm/a and the β value from 1.9 to 2.3. At the same time, it triggered the great scale rifting in the earth crust, forming large rift basins.
