8 The Gobi-Altay, Mongolia, includes high mountain ranges that have accommodated the compressional 9 stresses derived from the collision between the Eurasian and Indian plates. The Gurvan Bogd, which is 10 one of the main mountain ranges in the Gobi-Altay, is a restraining bend along the sinistral Bogd Fault. 11 Although surface ruptures did not form near the Artz Bogd during the 1957 Mw 8.1 Gobi-Altay 12 Earthquake, it is still active, as evidenced by a growing topography (i.e. forebergs). Six foreberg ridges 13 have formed in the foreland of the Artz Bogd, which are considered to be the result of surface 14 deformation of alluvial fans due to thrusting. One stream has cut down to expose a foreberg tip, providing 15 the opportunity to explore the slip evolution of the region. Here we map a growing fault structure related 16 to blind thrusting. We identify five faulting events from an analysis of the outcrop and apply optically 17 stimulated luminescence dating to the faulted sedimentary layers, yielding an average slip rate of 0.045 ± 18 0.007 m/kyr and earthquake recurrence interval of 5.8 ± 0.5 kyr over the last ~32 kyr. Furthermore, the 19 long-term (~600 kyr) uplift rate of the foreberg is 0.067 ± 0.007 as deduced by dividing the vertical 20 displacement of the alluvial fan surface by the Be surface exposure ages of boulders on the fan. The 21 discrepancy (20%–30%) between these two deformation rates may be due to the different timescales they 22 cover and an along-strike gradient in slip rate. 23
