The Lower Triassic at Majiashan Section, deposited in the deep part of the Lower Yangtze carbonate ramp, is the only outcrop of the deep Lower Triassic preserved in the present Lower Yangtze region. Even so, the alternations of mudrock of mudrock and marl (or limestone) are still very distinct and recognizableable, though usually more or less condensed. The lithological and geochemical cycles at Majiashan Section are discussed in terms of the sedimentary characters and the contents of some elements analyzed at a 2-centimeter-interval with no hiatus of the Lower Triassic. The division resolution of the Griesbachian stratigraphy may increase to the scale of ten thousand years by the mudrock-marl (or limestone) bundles and the geochemical cycles. The analysis of the relationship between the sedimentary cycles/the geochemical cycles and the Milankovitch cycles may suggest the time limit and the sedimentary rates.
