Paleocave as a Proxy for Calculating Uplift Amplitude of the Late Ordovician in Central Tarim, Xinjiang, Northwest China
Unconformably contact between the sandstone-siltstone of the Sangtamu Formation and limestone of the Lianglitag Formation in Ordovician, Kaitian, exists in the Tazhong High, central Tarim Platform. It distinctively indicates a regional tectonic uplift event happened with duration of about 1 Ma. A suite of coalesced, collapsed-paleocave sediment occurred from the 4 125.6~4 133.
