  • Palaeozoic Rocks of the San Tin Group Classification and Distribution
    PalaeozoicRocks of the San Tin Group Classification and Distribution The sedimenmryrocks of this Palaeozoicbasin (the San Tin Group) occupy a northeasterly,curving, faulted, irregular belt at least 25 km long and up to a maximum of 4 km in width. This fault-bounded basinextends northwards into Shenzhenand Guangdong,and south throughTuen Mun. Bennett (1984c) outlined the basic structureof the areaas a narrow grabenbetween the CastlePeak and the Sung Kong granites,and noted the presenceof metasedimenmryrocks of the Repulse Bay Formation and the Lok Ma ChauFormation. The San Tin Group is divided into two formations; a lower, largely calcareousYuen Long Formation, and an upper, mostly arenaceous/argillaceousLok Ma ChauFormation (Langford et ai, 1989)(Figure5). Yuen Long Formation The Yuen Long Fonnation was named by Lee (1985) to distinguish the concealed marbles and limestonesof the Yuen Long area from the better known clastic rocks belonging to the establishedand exposed Lok Ma Chau Fonnation (Bennett, 1984b). The distinctive carbonate lithologies were originally recognised by Ha et al (1981), who suggested that they probably belonged to the CarboniferousPeriod. General supportfor a Carboniferousage was provided by the strike of the rocks which could be traced northeastwardsinto Shenzhen,where unpublished1:50 000 geologicalmapping of the Shenzhen,Special Economic Zone apparently showed similar lithologies classified as Lower Carboniferous(Visean) (Lai & Mui, 1985). The Yuen Long Fonnation is overlain by the Lok Ma Chau Fonnation. The boundary betweenthe two fonnations is in places gradationalbut in others sharp and probably unconfonnable.The presenceof beds of marble intercalatedwith the lowest metasiltstonesin someboreholes is interpretedby Langford et al (1989) to be a gradual passagefrom a dominantly calcareoussequence to one of largely clastic material.
