During the past twenty years, this term "Great Bank of Guizhou" was used in more than 300 articles in foreign countries. In the 1990s, the authors have studied the lithofacies palaeogeography of the Early and Middle Triassic in South China. In June 2014, we went to the Luodian area and studied the Early Triassic Bianyang section again.
