Abstract
A large number of coal bearing strata are developed in Beishan Basin Group of Ganmeng area.However, due to the complexity of tectonic evolution, lack of seismic, drilling and related paleontological data, the age of coal bearing strata has been controversial, and the potential of resources is not clear.On the basis of summarizing the previous research results, taking paleontology chronology as the starting point, combining the characteristics of rock assemblage, coal industrial characteristics, seismic data, outcrop data and other evidence, the age attribution of coal bearing strata in Beishan Basin Group is studied.According to the analysis of sporopollen paleontology, coal petrology industrial characteristics and stratigraphic contact relationship, it is considered that each basin of Beishan Basin Group has developed a set of coal bearing series, but the age of this coal bearing system is not the same.Some are Jurassic and some are Cretaceous, but the possibility of Triassic or Permian is ruled out.Only the coal bearing strata in the southern part of Zhongkouzi Basin in the southernmost part of Beishan Basin Group and the eastern part of Heiyingshan Basin in the northernmost part of the basins group are Jurassic, and the coal bearing rock series of other sub basins belong to Cretaceous.The coal bearing strata in Zhongkouzi Basin in the southern part of the basins group show a "North-South difference" consistent with the structure features.The age of the exposed coal bearing strata in the south is Middle Jurassic, and that in the north is Cretaceous.The classification of the coal bearing series provides a basis for further determining the resource potential of Beishan Basin Group, and provides a reference for the study of the prototype basin restoration and tectonic evolution of the coal bearing series in the Beishan Basin Group
