By systematically collecting samples from depositional covers in Huaying Mountain, Eastern Sichuan, Upper Yangtze late, and comprehensively testing and analyzing their rock mechanics parameters and rock physical parameters, the lower Cambrian, upper Ordovician, lower Silurian, upper Permian
and middle-lower Triassic formations in the studied area are grouped into typical major sliding layers according to that they are composed of mud stone, shale, gypsum and coal-beds, and characterized by lower resistivity competent, lower physical parameters etc., and the rest are non - sliding layers.Comparing the up, middle and lower parts of the formations on
the area by rock mechanics parameters: Rp, Rt, Rs E,λetc.and the rock physics parameters: Vp, Vs, D etc., it has been found that the major sliding layer are basic similar in whole Yangtze plate, and the sliping layers could play an important role of being a regional covering strata.
