摘要
This paper systematically describes the multilayered Permian basalts occurring in the Kalpin area of Xingjiang, by in-situ measurements as well as interpretation of satellite images. The Kalpin basalts can be divided into eight layers, the early two of which occur in the Kupukuziman Formation, and the later six in the Kaipaizileike Formation. The multilayered basalts represent multiple eruptions from the same magma source. They may have come from different magma chambers or different volcanic vents, and they may have erupted quickly with crystallized plagioclase phenocrysts.
