On March 10, 2011, an Ms. 5.8 earthquake struck Yingjiang City, western Yunnan, China, causing destructive damage. Due to the very sparse distribution of seismic stations on the southwestern border of China, its seismogenic structure and mechanism remain controversial. In this study, with the aid of machine-learning-based detection and location workflow and template matching technique, we detect 10,356 events ranging from December 1, 2010, to April 30, 2011. The high-precision earthquake catalog shows that the foreshocks initiated in the extensional stepover connecting the northeast and middle segments of the Dayingjiang fault and then bilaterally extended northeast and southwest, with migration fronts that can be simulated by fluid diffusion model with diffusivities of 0.8 m2 /s and 0.19 m2 /s, respectively. The mainshock occurred at the southwest end of the foreshock sequence and then probably activated the northwest-trending blind fault. In addition, we determine the full moment tensor solutions for the mainshock, six large foreshocks, and one aftershock, with magnitudes ranging from 3.03 to 5.80, in which the mainshock was characterized by an obvious negative isotropic (ISO) component. The static Coulomb failure stress change caused by five Mw ≥ 4.0 foreshocks on the mainshock fault plane is ∼24 kPa, reaching the typical static triggering threshold. Therefore, we suggest that both the fluid diffusion and stress perturbation contribute to triggering the mainshock. This study advances our understanding of the spatiotemporal evolution, seismogenic mechanism, and hazard implication for the Yingjiang Ms. 5.8 earthquake and provides additional evidence of natural fluid-triggered seismicity in western Yunnan.
