Rare "Red Mountains" geological landscape!Diguan Graduate Examination Team Deepen Coco Sili Inspection

△ Xinhua View Point reported the Daguraka Team in the Coco Sili for a rare "Red Mountains"

Coco Siri, located in the Qinghai -Tibet Plateau, is my country's largest uninhabited area. In the ongoing Chinese University of Geosciences (Wuhan) Yangtze River Source Scientific Examination, the scientific research team inspected a rare large -scale "Red Mountains" in the Cocoat. The investigation of this special geological phenomenon will help deepen scientific research on the process of Long -Tibet Plateau.

The "Red Mountains" here is located in the middle of the Cocoic Basin. The reporter followed the science team at the scene that the red -brown mountains were very conspicuous in the green grassland of the cocoa Sili in the summer.

According to Shen Tianyi, a member of the scientific research team and an associate professor at the School of Geoscience of China University of Geosciences (Wuhan), these "Red Mountains" of the Coco Basin are mainly formed in the late Baiji period from the late Baiji period to ancient times from more than 70 million to 30 million years. The mountains are approaching, and the slopes are asymmetric, the south is steep and north, and the section of the stratum is clearly exposed. It is a spectacular ancient geological relic on the Qinghai -Tibet Plateau. Shen Tianyi said that the width of more than 160 kilometers from the north and south of the red formation, and the extension of the east to west nearly 600 kilometers.

Geological research has found that more than 30 million years ago, Coco Xili was very low in altitude and was in a large lake. Later, with the rise of the Qinghai -Tibet Plateau, the cocoa Sili rose to form a mountain basin. According to the scientific examination team, the Geological landscape of the "Red Mountains" of Coco is not only expected to become a large "geological park" in Coco Siri. The rich geological information contained in the Qinghai -Tibet Plateau is closely related to the process. support. (Xinhua News Agency reporter Wang Yan, Zhang Long, Chen Jie)

On July 15th, the first stop of the first stop of this scientific test line, Jiang Yuanke, was the first stop of the scientific test line. The scientific research team will carry out a 10-day scientific research work on July 15th to 25th to be the "pulse" and "physical examination" of the Yangtze River.
