Abstract:Carboniferous strata is one of the most widely distributed strata in this area. It is a set of coal bearing formation, so the study on sedimentary characteristics of coal prospecting work is very important. According to rock association characteristics, the strata in this area can be divided into Chouniugou formation and Yanghugou formation. They are controllded by faults with the trend of NW—SE, and distributed along the direction of the structures. Its top and bottom parts are generally developed completly. Through study on the sequence stratigraphy of Carboniferous strata in this period, it is regarded that this area has experienced two times complete sea water intrusion and exiting periods. Coal deposits have close relation with the degree of the second development of the transgressive system tract.
