Abstract: Matrixsupported carbonatite boulders and pebbles were discretely cropped out to the northeast of Liujing town, where they unconformably overlie the Lower Devonian Moding and Najiao Formations, in which dual textures are well exhibited. Few attentions have been paid to the alluvial fan deposits ever since they were noticed. After careful examination on the coarse deposits, in comparison with the modern and ancient alluvial fan analogues, these discrete red coarse deposits are proposed as the remains of different parts of one Paleogene piedmont alluvial fan, sourced by the carbonate hinterland under a dry climate.
