Detrital Zircon U-Pb Geochronology of the Dazhuyuan Formation in Northern Guizhou: Implications for Bauxite Mineralization by ZHAO Zhi, WANG Deng-hong, LI Pei-gang, LEI Zhi-yuan

“…Combined with the regional geological characteristics, it is postulated that (1) the detrital zircons of the aluminous come from the Hanjiadian group (S1hj), which is the important metallogenic parent rocks of the bauxite. (2) The Caledonian orogeny made the collision between the Cathaysian block and the Yangtze block, implying that the Cathaysia block uplifted rapidly and suffered from erosion in the Silurian, which made a foundation providing a large amount of metallogenic material for the formation of the bauxite.…”

The Ordovician Arc–Basin System in the Northern Great Xing’an Range (Northeast China): Constraints from Provenance Analysis of the Luohe Formation by Liyang Li, Chuanheng Zhang, Zhiqiang Feng

“…The geochemical compositions of the sandstones suggest that the source rocks have continental island arc signatures. Based on the depositional age, sedimentary environment, provenance, and regional geology, it is concluded that the Luohe Formation was deposited in a back-arc basin setting during the formation of the Duobaoshan island arc–basin system in response to subduction of the Paleo-Asian oceanic plate.…”

Characteristics and exploration prospects of Middle Permian reservoirs in the Sichuan Basin by Guang Yang, Hua Wang, Hao Shen, Yuran Yang, Song Jia, Wen Chen, Hua Zhu, Yi Li

“…It is concluded that Middle Permian limestone source rocks have large hydrocarbon generation intensity in the northern part of Western and Central Sichuan Basin and have the material basis for the formation of large-medium gas fields; the thick dolomite reservoir of the Qixia Formation in the Western Sichuan Basin is the most prospective reservoir in the Middle Permian; three types of reservoirs are distributed in the Central Sichuan Basin, and they are superimposed vertically with large exploration potential; Jiange–Nanchong–Fengdu region is located in the thermal sub-basin zone, where the thermal water dolomite reservoir of the Maokou formation is pervasive and superimposed on the karst reservoir of the Maokou Formation, showing good natural gas exploration prospects.…”
