Abstract
In this short paper, the writev describes the results of his stratigraphic observations in 1939 in North China., The Eastern Hill of Taiyuan-fu in the Shansi district stratigraphically consists, in descending order, of the redeposited loess, the loess (the Malan stage), the sand and gravel formation (the Sanmenian stage), the purple or reddish chocholate sandstone (the Permo-Triassic), the light brown sandstone, the Neuropteris-bearing shale (the Permo-Carboniferous), the limestone, the Chonetes carbonifera-bearing black shale (Middle Carboniferous), the alternation of black shale and sandstone, the basal conglomerate with iron nodules, and the Cambro-Ordovician limestone., As may be seen from a comparison of the stratigraphic columns established by NORIN and other authors in the Western Hill of Taiyuan-fu and the Shihhotze valley with the writer's, it is likely that some Permian and Carboniferous stratigraphic facies in the former lack in the latter.,
