Storm Deposits of the Sinian Zhangqu Formation in Northern Anhui — An Upward Shallowing Carbonate Sequence1
View through CrossRef
Abstract This paper studies, for the first time, the storm deposits of a carbonate sequence in the Sinian Zhangqu Formation in northern Anhui. In the formation, a great number of calcareous trider sponge spicules were discovered in a distal storm turbidity sequence, which have provided further evidence for the correlation of the Sinian Systems in North and South China from a view point of palaeontology.
