摘要
The studied area Shizhuang, Mengzhou city, Henan province, is located at the southeastern margin of the Jiyuan Basin. Stratigraphically, the area belongs to the Taihangshan region of Shanxi subdomain of North China domain. The main strata outcropped in the area include Mesozoic Triassic, Cenozoic Tertiary and Quaternary. During the Mesozoic the area experienced a long-term period of terrestrial basin facies deposition, and a large amount of organic matter was concentrated in the rocks. Consequently, the Mesozoic strata are always regarded as coal-series strata and target for the prospecting of coal resources. The result obtained in the research provides some revelation for the prospecting of oil-gas resources in the Jiyuan Basin in northwest Henan Province.
