  • The Lower Paleozoic Stratigraphy of Western Part of the Southern Shan State, Burma
    Geol. Soc. Malaysia, Bulletin 6, July 1973; pp. 143-163. The Lower Paleozoic Stratigraphy of Western Part of the Southern Shan State, Burma MYINT LWIN THEINl Abstract: Rocks of all periods of the Lower Paleozoic are exposed at the western part of the Southern Shan State, typically at the Pindaya and Bawsaing (formerly known as Mawson) ranges. The Cambrian rocks are recently discovered, the Ordovician and Silurian rocks have been systematically restudied and grouped into formal lithostratigraphical units. The Cambrian (Upper), Molohein Group proposed here as a new lithostratigraphic unit, is essentially made up of clastic sediments, and composed of slightly metamorphosed mica­ ceous, fine-grained, pinkish to brown sandstones, and light-colored quartzites as principal rock types, and coarse-grained, pinkish sandstones, grits, greywacke, conglomerates and dolomites as minor rock types. These rocks are exposed as the cores of Pindaya Range and Hethin Hill in Bawsaing Range. The discovery of Saukiella and related genera from the mica­ ceous sandstones enabled the assignment of the unit as Upper Cambrian. The thickness of the group is about 3,500 feet. The lower boundary of the unit in contact with the Chaungmagyi rocks of the pre-Cambrian age (La Touche, 1913) is unconformable, while the upper bound­ ary in contact with the lower boundary of the Lokepyin Formation (Ordovician) is grada­ tional. The Ordovician rocks of the Southern Shan State can conveniently be grouped into the Pindaya Group which includes the Pindaya Beds and Mawson Series of Brown and Sondhi (1933). The Pindaya Group, herein, could be differentiated into four newly proposed forma­ tions, viz., (from lowest to uppermost), Lokepyin Formation (essentially containing grey siltstones), Wunbye Formation (essentially containing bedded limestones with burrowed structures and interbedded grey siltstones), Nan-on Formation (essentially containing yellow to buff color siltstones and mudstones, and Tanshauk Member (containing purplish shales and siltstones) of Nan-on Formation.

The successful planning and implementation of the census activities, followed by the timely release of the provisional results in August 2014 and now the main results in May 2015, is a clear testimony of the Government’s resolve to publish all information collected from respondents in accordance with the Population and Housing Census Law No. 19 of 2013. It is my hope that the main census results will be interpreted correctly and will effectively inform the planning and decision-making processes in our quest for national development. The census structures put in place, including the Central Census Commission, Census Committees and Offices at all administrative levels and the International Technical Advisory Board (ITAB), a group of 15 experts from different countries and institutions involved in censuses and statistics internationally, provided the requisite administrative and technical inputs for the implementation of the census.

  • Recent Discovery of the Proterozoic Metasediments in the Shwepahto
    Dagon University Research Journal 2020, Vol. 11 247 Recent Discovery of the Proterozoic Metasediments in the Shwepahto Area, Pindaya Township, Southern Shan State, Myanmar Mi Paik1, Kyi Kyi Maw2, Aye Ko Aung3, Yu War Chaw4, Aung Zaw Set5 1 [email protected] Abstract The Shwepahto area is located at the southeastern part of the Pindaya range, Pindaya Township, Southern Shan State. The present study mainly deals with the lithology and petrography of the Chaung Magyi Group and also discusses on their paleotectonic environment. This is first to report the occurrence of the Chaung Magyi metasediments in eastern part of the Pindaya range. It is well exposed along the road between Panzit and Kyangyinbyaung villages. On the lithology basis, it can be correlated with the Chaung Magyi Group of the other areas such as northeastern part of Mandalay- north of Sedawgyi, Yeywa, the area between Myogyi-Sakangyi, on the Hanmyinmo-Ywangan road, Yechanpyin, and western part of Hsinmango hill in Ywangan Township. In the present area, the Chaung Magyi Group consists of slate (pyritiferous), sandy phyllite, talc-chlorite phyllite, metadolomite and slightly metamorphosed greywacke. Under the microscope, the two units, slate and sandy phyllite show fairly deformed characters. The Chaung Magyi rocks, being very old, must have undergone more than one major episode of deformation. These rocks have been subjected to mainly low grade metamorphism (greenschist facies) as indicated by the development of mostly slates and phyllites. The rocks in the area are running nearly N-S in direction and giving southwest dipping. The quartzofeldspathic veins occur frequently. The unit co-occurs with the volcanic ash, which is presumably the same age of the Chaung Magyi Group.
