| Huayuangou outcrop, Karamay City | Zheng D. R., Chang S. C., et al (2018) | Baijiantan | Numerous fossils including insects, kazacharthrans, fishes, plants and sporopollen have been unearthed from the Baijiantan Formation of the Shendigou outcrop in Xinjiang. The sporopollen assemblage in the Baijiantan Formation is mostly inherited from that of the upper part of the Karamay Formation and the megaspore assemblage resembles that of the Upper Triassic Haojiagou Formation in the southern Junggar Basin, all indicating a Late Triassic age. The Baijiantan Formation is found in the northwe | mudstone | 237 - 228 Ma Late/Upper Triassic |
