The main strata cropping out in the Zhunuo-Beimulang district include the Eocene Pana Formation composed of tuff and rhyolite, and the Eocene Nianbo Formation consisted of sedimentary tuff. The NNW-striking fault extends ∼ 2 km, which cut off the monzogranite, indicating that the fault was formed after the monzogranite.
