Fair Oaks Publishing 0-933271-06-9 91-21086 23940730 90 https://archive.org/details/outerpathfinding00reyn/page/90/ Gerzê is really the end of the world. It is situated in the middle of an empty desert, and I can't imagine why anyone ever stopped to build a town here. Except for a few nondescript Chinese concrete buildings, all the walls and houses are made from mud bricks and everything— the houses, the road, even the surrounding countryside—is the same light brown color.

The presence of this Formation has provided important evidence for determining the northern border of Gondwana. Previous researchers have classified those strata north of Niangrong Co in the Gêrzê region as part of the Zhanjin Formation based on the presence of glacial–marine diamictite, although the absence of biological fossil evidence has defied clear age determination. 26 January 2021 https://web.archive.org/web/20210126151229/https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/1755-6724.12573 26 January 2021
