| Hadong power plant tracksite | Lee Y.-N., Lee H.-J., et al (2008) | Shindong - Hasandong | middle part of section at outcrop. "The age of the Hasandong Formation has been determined as Aptian to Albian by molluscan faunas (Yang, 1982) and as Hauterivian to Barremian by palynomorphs (Choi, 1985, 1989; Yi et al., 1994). The age of the Hasandong Formation was also regarded as Hauterivian on the basis of palaeontological and radiometric data (Chang, 1988). Recently, ion microprobe dating of a dinosaur tooth from the Hasandong Formation indicated a 238U - 206Pb isochron age of 117 +/- 18 M | mudstone | 132.9 - 100.5 Ma Early/Lower Cretaceous |
