The Simao Basin is located in the northern part of the Indochina Block. Its eastern boundary is marked by the Ailaoshan suture zone, while the western boundary is defined by the Jinghong suture zone. The basin extends southward to the China border and northward near Jingdong County, Pu'er City. Since the Cenozoic, the collision between the Indian plate and the Eurasian plate has resulted in strike-slip and thrust-over structures within the continental block, leading to the development of complex fault systems.
The sedimentary basement of the Simao Basin comprises a pre-Cambrian to Lower Paleozoic greenschist facies metamorphic complex, overlain by Mesozoic to Cenozoic sediments. Carboniferous and Permian strata sporadically outcrop along the basin margins, consisting mainly of carbonate rocks interbedded with clastic and volcanic rocks. In the eastern part, Triassic deposits primarily consist of coal-bearing clastic rocks in the Upper Triassic, whereas well-developed Jurassic strata predominantly feature red continental clastic rocks. To the west, the Middle Triassic and the lower members of the Upper Triassic are developed, but the Upper Triassic coal-bearing strata are absent. The discovered rock salt primarily occurs in the Mengyejing Fm. of the Lower Cretaceous, with burial depths shallower than 1251 m.

Mineralization age: Phanerozoic : 259.0 ± 3.5 Ma to 208 ± 26 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
