Mountain range evolution

The ancient topography of Hengshan Mountain is inseparable from the topographic development of Hunan Province. From Silurian, Ordovician to the end of Jurassic, the eastern part of Hunan is the ancient Cathaysian continent, the western and northern parts are the ancient Jiangnan continent, and the south-central part is a big bay. Sea water is a large inward slope of Himalayan mountains, which invades Hunan through Guangxi and reaches Changsha as far north. In the bay, the seawater advances and retreats, deep and shallow, and Hengshan is on the way of seawater advancing and retreating.

After Jurassic, Hunan's bay became land with the rise of the whole Asian continent, and has not been invaded by seawater so far. In the process of Hengshan mountain from sea to land, its terrain development process is also very complicated. Before CAMBRIAN, the topography of Mount Hengshan was unknown because there was no stratigraphic record.
