GEOLOGICAL STUDY OF THE DEPOSITS OF THE SANGKANHO BASIN.

This paper offers a preliminary statement of the results of investigations carried out in the South Sangkanho basin, in the mountains some 80 miles to the NW of Peking. Important fossiliferous deposits found in this area throw light on the conditions ruling in N. China during the transition from Pliocene

UPPER CAMBRIAN FOSSILS FROM FENGTIEN.

INTRODUCTION. The upper Cambrian of Fengtien was studied by Dr. Andersson whomade the following section and kindly permitted me to use it. (Fig. 1) Theupper Cambrian rest disconformably upon the pre-Cambrian rocks, which areof Sinian age. Upwards it is succeeded probably with a disconformity bythe Ordovician.     

UPPER CAMBRIAN OF KAIPING BASIN.

The Cambrian of China is developed in Yunnan, Shantung, Chihliand Manchuria. The first collection of Cambrian fossils was made by VonRichthofen and described by Dames and Kayser. Dames studied thetrilobites and Kayser described the brachiopods.
