Abstract
Abstracts of Acta Geologica Sinica (Chinese Edition) Vol. 77, No. 3,2003 Emergence of the Late Permian Changhsingian Reefs at the End of the Permian WU Yasheng, FAN Jiasong (Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100029); and JIN Yugan (Nanjing Institute of Geology and Paleontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Nanjing, Jiangsu 210008) Dolostones occur on the top of the reef core, reef front and back reef sequences of the Upper Permian The Changhsingian reef in Ziyun County, Guizhou Province, southwestern China. Comprehensive study on them reveals that these dolostones are of the supratidal Sabkha genesis: ( I ) All have S’*O values higher than those of their precursor limestones; (2) All have Sr and Fe contents similar to those of known typical supratidal Sabkha evaporative finely crystalline dolostones from a well in the Ordos Basin, Shanxi-Gansu-Ningxia provinces, China; (3) All are composed of finely crystalline euhedral-subhedral dolomites; (4) All occur on the top of the reef core, reef front and back reef; ( 5 ) Algal laminated structure, bird-eyes, mudcracks and crustose limonite occur in the reef front and back reef. These features indicate that this reef was once emerged at the terminal Permian. The
