The earth quake was caused due to thrusting on longmensham fault. The deformatiobn of the rocks in the region was caused by the collision of the Indian and the eurasian tectonic plates and continued movement of the plates relative to each other. The sichuan area is a very tectonic active are just like the west side of the USA.
