The invention relates to a large-thickness lamellar tearing-resistant modulated high-strength steel plate with 960 MPa-level yield strength and a production method thereof. The chemical components ofthe large-thickness lamellar tearing-resistant modulated high-strength steel plate with 960 MPa-level yield strength comprises, by weight, 0.15-0.20% of carbon, 0.10-0.40% of silicon, 0.90-1.30% of manganese, 0.010-0.040% of niobium, 0.010-0.045% of vanadium, smaller than or equal to 0.010% of titanium, 0.03-0.06% of aluminum, 0.50-1.00% of nickel, smaller than or equal to 0.1% of copper, 0.30-0.80% of chromium, 0.20-0.70% of molybdenum, 0.001-0.005% of boron, 0.001-0.005% of calcium, smaller than or equal to 0.010% of phosphorus, smaller than or equal to 0.002% of sulphur, smaller than or equal to 0.002% of oxygen, smaller than or equal to 0.004% of nitrogen, smaller than or equal to 0.00015% of hydrogen and the balance iron and inevitable impurity elements. The technological steps of thesteel plate comprises smelting, secondary refining, vacuum degassing, calcium treatment, continuous casting, heating, rolling, steel plate slow cooling, quenching and tempering. The large-thickness lamellar tearing-resistant modulated high-strength steel plate with 960 MPa-level yield strength has high comprehensive mechanical property; the yield strength is greater than or equal to 960 MPa; thetensile strength is greater than or equal to 1000 MPa; the Charpy impact power at a low temperature of minus 40 DEG C is greater than or equal to 30J; the Z-direction tensile fracture surface shrinking rate is greater than or equal to 35%; and the lamellar tearing-resistant property is good.
