| Shiti Reservoir section, upper [Shiti Reservoir Fm] | Wang Y., Aitchison J. C., et al (2003) | Shiti Reservoir | STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS: From the Shiti Reservoir Fm, which lies conformably on the Xiaodong Gp (Middle Devonian) and is unconformably overlain by the Shikia Fm (Carboniferous). AGE: Famennian, on the basis of microfossil biostratigraphy. STRATIGRAPHIC POSITION: From the upper part of the formation. | chert | 372.2 - 358.9 Ma Late/Upper Devonian |
