摘要
During the 1:50 000 mineral resource prospect investigation in the Mahonondor area of East Ujimqin Qi, Inner Mongolia, the authors firstly divided the Baoligaomiao Formation into two rock unite members: the lower member is made of the andesites, andesitic volcaniclastices and sandstone-conglomerates, and the upper member consists of the rhyolites, dacitic tuff, carbonaceous slate and the fluvial deposit sandstone-conglomerates. In this study, zircons were chosen from the andesite, rhyolites and dacitic tuff to analyze their U-Pb isotope. Their SHRIMP ages are 303.4±6.7 Ma, 304.9±3.1 Ma in the upper member and 320.1±7.2 Ma in the lower member, which means they formed in late Carboniferous Period. This conclusion has a very important significance for studying the Paleo-Asian Ocean and ore-forming geological background in late Hercynian.
