英文摘要 | A paleomagnetic and rock magnetic investigation is reported from the dinosaur egg-bearing Yangcheng-Danshui section in the Xixia Basin (Henan province in central China). Results indicate that hematite and magnetite are the main carriers of remanence in this terrigenous section. The primary nature of characteristic remanent magnetization (ChRM) is ascertained by positive reversal test, suggesting that the ChRM was probably acquired in or close to the period when the sedimentary rocks were formed. Together with biostratigraphical and biochronological data, magnetostratigraphic results in this section unravel that the upper section spanning from 2973 m to 3023 m was deposited between 83Ma and 79 Ma in the Late Cretaceous. It therefore appears that the highest dinosaur egg-bearing layer in the Xixia Basin was accumulated prior to 83 Ma. These results imply that the extinction of the large reptiles commonly occurred in the Late Cretaceous might be related to the sharply rapid climate and natural environment change in the Xixia Basin, central China. In addition, the terrane of the section located is suggested to have undergone some 18 degrees clockwise rotation with respect to the North and South China blocks during the post-Late Cretaceous times, which was possibly triggered by the local tectonic activities. |
