Description:
The Honshu Geosyncline of middle Paleozoic to early Mesozoic age suffered a strong diastrophism in late Permian to early Triassic as shown by many stratigraphic breaks in the Maizuru and other Belts of Southwest Japan. This geosyncline survived through the Triassic Period in the Tamba and other Belts. The Tamba Belt had many troughs, submarine volcanism and also some tectonic lands. Abundant detrital materials had been supplied from both northern uplifting land, and southern tectonic lands. Detailed nature of sediments and their facies distribution and paleogeography of the middle to late Triassic Period are discussed. © 1978, The Seismological Society of Japan, The Volcanological Society of Japan, The Geodetic Society of Japan.
