Abstract: Based on the results of artificial seismic exploration and natural seismic exploration, the model of preparatio and generation of Xingtai earthquake has been proposed. Accord mg to this model, the pattern of regional stress distribution and its development have been analyzed. Combined with characteristics of deep structure, the nucleation of Xingtai earth­quake and mechanism of its main precursors (direct foreshocks, deformation, underground water level) are discussed.

Key words: Seismic exploration, Xingtai earthquake, Pattern of regional stress distribution, Model of earthquake generation, Mechanism of earthquake precursors
