藏北羌塘中央隆起带果干加年山晚三叠世珊瑚化石发现及其地质意义

藏北羌塘盆地中央隆起带果干加年山北坡首次发现了较丰富的珊瑚化石。珊瑚主要属种有8属10种及未定种:Distichophyllia norica(Frech),Gablonzeria irregularis DengZhang,Margarophyllia stylophylloides(Vinassa deRegny),M.zogangensisDengZhang,Margarophyllia? sp.,Montlivaltia tenuise DengZhang,Pamiroserisrectilamellosa(Winkler),Paradistichophyllum verticalis DengZhang,Paradistichophyllum?sp.,StylophyllopsismosjvariFrech等。产出这些珊瑚化石的灰岩地层原来被认为是混杂在晚三叠世望湖岭组碎屑岩中的古生代灰岩断块,而新发现的珊瑚指示地层时代并非是古生代,而是晚三叠世。这说明果干加年山地区不存在上三叠统碎屑岩和古生界灰岩混杂的现象。果干加年山地区的晚三叠世沉积不仅包含有望湖岭组的碎屑岩,还包含有夹在碎屑岩之间的浅海相灰岩。本次研究和前人的资料表明羌塘中央隆起带在晚三叠世并非是隆起剥蚀区,而是海洋沉积区。因而,以往建立在中央隆起带为隆起剥蚀区认识基础上的羌塘盆地晚三叠世沉积古地理环境和"一隆两坳"的大地构造格局认识需要重新考虑。

Discovery of Late Triassic Coral Fossils at the Guoganjianian

Coral fossils were first found at the north slope of the Guoganjianian Mountain in the Qiangtang Central Uplift in the north Tibet(Xizang). The coral fossils were identified to be 8 genus and 10 species, including Distichophyllia norica (Frech), Gablonzeria irregularis Deng & Zhang, Margarophyllia stylophylloides (Vinassa de Regny ), M. zogangensis Deng & Zhang, Margarophyllia? sp., Montlivaltia tenuise Deng & Zhang, Pamiroseris rectilamellosa (Winkler), Paradistichophyllum verticalis Deng & Zhang, Paradist...
