Graptolite fauna indicates the beginning of the Kwangsian Orogeny

Watch your language! There's children present!

I hope there is an English translation.

I never learned Chinese.

Our research at the State Key Laboratory of Palaeobiology and Stratigraphy, Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, has shown, based on a refined division and correlation of the graptolite-bearing strata in southern Jiangxi, China, that the Kwangsian Orogeny commenced in the early Katian Age of the Late Ordovician.

If I only had a dollar for every time I've said that!

“Graptolite fauna indicates the beginning of the Kwangsian Orogeny”

Let’s keep it clean here. This is a family forum.

Apparently, none of you folks ever studied geology.

The authors are discussing the use of different fossil species (graptolites) appearing in certain sedimentary rock (shale) layers at various places in China to ascertain the approximate time in the past when a mountain range began rising (orogeny).

If this were in the US popular press, it would be all about how we feel solidarity with the poor, oppressed graptolites.

Perhaps you'd be more comfortable with that?

Sounds like the plot line of one of Frank Herbert's post-Dune yawners.
