Abstract

The Late Permian Heshan Formation in the Heshan coal field is a typical carbonate coal measures formed in a shallow water carbonate platform setting. Up to seven coal seams have been preserved with numbers 2, 3A, 3B, 3C, 4A, 4B and 5, in descending order. Four third-order unconformity-bounded sequences have been identified. Sequence Ⅰ is from the bottom of the Heshan Fm to the base of the cherts beneath coal Seam 4B. Sequence Ⅱ is from the cherts beneath Seam 4B to the base of Seam 4A; Sequence Ⅲ is from base of Seam 4A to the base of the bauxitic mudstone beneath Seam 2; Sequence Ⅳ is from the base of the bauxitic mudstone beneath Seam 2 to the top of the Heshan Formation. Sequences Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅳ are strongly controlled by regional differential subsidence. Sequence Ⅲ shows cyclicity of the coal and carbonate rocks, with extensive distribution in the central Guangxi area, reflecting strong control by sea level changes. Within the Sequence Ⅲ, four fourth-order sequences are recognised, each consisting of a basal transgressive coal seam and overlying highstand tidal flat and open platform limestones. In the Heshan coalfield, fourth-order sequences and coals within the Sequence Ⅲ thin first and then thicken upwards, with the thinnest being the fourth-order sequence with coal Seam 3B. As a result, the thickest coal in the carbonate platform setting is formed at the transgressive surface and the thinnest coal is formed at the bottom of the maximum flooding zone.
