Stratigraphy comments: Lower to middle portion of the lower member of the Shaximiao Formation
Several radiometric ages have been reported for the Shaximiao Formation, including 167 Ma or 172 Ma (Zong and Shi, 1997), 167–172 Ma or 178–169 Ma (Gou et al., 2000), 163±3 Ma (Li et al., 2010), 160±4 Ma (Luo et al., 2014), 158±7 Ma (Qian et al., 2016), and 159±2 Ma (Wang et al., 2018). However, more recent studies suggest an older age: Dai et al. (2022) reported a maximum depositional age for the bone-bearing layers of the lower member of the Shaximiao formation to be Bathonian, based on zircon U-Pb ages of 166.0 ± 1.5 Ma (Zhou et al. 2022). |
