根据岩石学、古生态学、地球化学特征及沉积序列,结合区域地质资料的系统研究,本文论述了浙江江山地区奥陶纪沉积相与沉积环境的演变规律,并对本区东侧华夏古陆的存在和加里东运动的作用方式、活动时间提出了可信的论证。

Abstract:

In the light of petrographic,palaeoecological and geochemical characteristics and sedi-mentary sequences,in reference to regional geological data,the present paper deals with the evolution of the Ordovician sedimentary facies and environments in Jiangshan,Zhe-jiang.The Ordovician sedimentary facies sequences here are classified,from base upwards, into restricted platform facies,shelf facies,deep-water basin facies,shallow marine shelf fa-cies and turbidite facies.The crustal movements operating in the middle Caledonian are characteristic of differential elevation and subsidence.The crust was stable during the Ear-ly Ordovician.From the middle Early Ordovician onwards,the increasing basin activities resulted in the development of wide-spread deep-water anoxic sediments and turbidity cur-rent sediments.Till the Wufengian(Late Ordovician),the marine basin became a graben basin controlled by deep faults.There was indeed the "Cathaysia" on the eastern part of the study area,which was believed to be a principal source area for the Zhejiang-Anhui ma-rine basin during Ordovician Time.
