Abstract
The Late Ordovician Pingliang Formation in the Guanzhuang section, located in the south‐western Ordos Basin, North China, contains several K‐bentonite layers, which are important for understanding the tectonic evolution of the south‐western Ordos Basin. This study provides new geochemical and SIMS U–Pb geochronological data for the K‐bentonites to establish the Ordovician high‐resolution chronostratigraphic framework for the Ordos Basin and to...
