| Fuxin city area | Kusuhashi N., Hu Y., et al (2009) | Jehol - Fuxin | Depositional ages of the Fuxin and Shahai formations remain ambiguous, because neither reliable radiometric ages nor available index fossils have been reported from either of the formations. On the other hand, from the underlying Jehol Group, radiometric ages of 120 to 130 Ma have been reported by several authors (e.g., Eberth et al., 1993; Smith et al., 1995; Swisher et al., 1999, 2001;Wang S.-S. et al., 2001a, b; He et al., 2004), and the group is now generally thought to be Barremian to Aptia | coal | 125 - 100.5 Ma Early/Lower Cretaceous |
