LA-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon analyses from two meta-rhyolites and one meta-tuff of the Kangbutiebao Fm. in the Chonghuer Basin yield weighted mean 206Pb/238U ages of (385.3±1.2) Ma, (398.1±1.8) Ma and (405.6±2.2) Ma, respectively, which can be interpreted as the eruption age of the Kangbutiebao silicic volcanic rocks in the Chonghuer Basin. These features, together with the regional geological characteristics, indicate that these felsic volcanic rocks were generated by partial melting of lower crust on an active continental margin. These volcano-sedimentary basins are down-faulted Basin formed in compression tectonic environment of Early—Middle Devonian period.
