THE LINJIA FORMATION IN BENXI, EAST LIAONING PROVINCE ASSIGNED TO MIDDLE TRIASSIC: Evidences from Zircon, Fossil and Stratigraphy
-
摘要:
林家组出露于辽宁东部本溪林家崴子一带.自小林贞一1942年记载以来,其时代一直有很大的争议.争议跨度从第三系到上二叠统.20世纪80年代初,张武等依据动植物化石和地层对比,提出了林家组属于中三叠世的观点.由于林家组产出的植物化石十分复杂,既有古生代,又有中生代分子,且没有锆石年龄证据,故林家组时代仍然存疑.近年来,在林家组底部找到了变质凝灰质粉砂岩,其中有很多锆石.根据30颗保存较好锆石测年结果,发现4颗最年轻锆石的206Pb/238U平均年龄是239.5±4.1 Ma.另外,最近前甸子地区林家组发现了少林肋木(Pleuromeia shaolinii).因此尽管林家植物群存在二叠纪和三叠纪均有分布的重要植物,但结合锆石定年、地层对比、岩性特征、平行不整合接触关系、三叠纪代表植物及中三叠世到早白垩世均有分布的昆虫索德蠊属来综合分析,可以确认林家组确实属于中三叠世.
Abstract:The Linjia Formation is outcropped in Linjiawaizi area, Benxi, eastern Liaoning Province. Since recorded by Kobayashi in 1942, its age has long been a great controversy. In the early 1980s, Zhang et al. suggested that the Linjia Formation should be assigned to Middle Triassic on the basis of the plant fossils fish scales, insect wings, spores and pollens, as well as stratigraphic correlation. As the components of Linjia flora are very complicated with both Paleozoic and Mesozoic elements but without evidences of zircon ages, the age of Linjia Formation has not yet been determined. Recently, the metamorphic tuffaceous siltstones containing lots of zircons were found at the bottom of Linjia Formation. According to the dating results of 30 grains of zircon crystal, the average 206Pb/238U age of 4 newest zircons was 239.5±4.1 Ma. In addition, Pleuromeia shaolinii was lately discovered from Linjia Formation in Qiandianzi area. Although some significant fossil plants of Linjia flora are distributed striding cross Permian and Triassic, combined with the zircon dating, stratigraphic correlation, lithologic characteristics, parallel unconformity relation, typical Triassic fossil plants and the Middle Triassic-Early Cretaceous insect fossil Sogdoblatta, it is confirmed that the Linjia Formation belongs to Middle Triassic.
