(2) The geological characteristics
1) Sedimetological and geochemical characteristics showed that the clay layer was formed under oceanic circumstances.
2) The mineralogy mainly includes clay materials such as quartz, feldspar, illite, chlorite, and kaolinite.
3) The results of radiocarbon dating by AMS showed 3,692±50 yr.B.P for the upper samples and 16,650±200 yr.B.P. for the lower samples.
