The Late Permian Heshan Formation is the major coal-bearing stratum exhibiting littoral or marine–continental transitional facies. The coal-bearing stratum of the Heshan Formation is mainly composed of carbonate rock, carbonaceous mudstone, mudstone, marl and coal seam, and partial siltstone. Local parts have intercalations of medium–thick bedded argillaceous limestone, dolomite, or dolomitic limestone. Heshan Formation is in parallel unconformity contact with the lower Maokou Formation and in conformity contact with the overlying Dalong Formation. At the turn of the Middle and late Permian, influenced by the convergence of the Gondwana plate and Laua plate, the global sea level dropped, and the Emeishan basalt erupted, resulting in significant changes in the distribution pattern of sedimentary facies of the Heshan Formation, forming a composite of rifted basin and terrigenous clastic basin.
