Abstract
In Nileke region of Xinjiang, Permian strata are widespread and form complete sequences. The contact relations are obvious and all stratotypes of the five formations are found in the region. It is a classic location for the research of Permian strata in west of the Tianshan mountains. The authors re-measured and systematically sampled the five type sections to study the cycle of volcanic eruption, fossils and facies to make dependable criteria for stratigraphic division and correlation of Permian strata in the west Tianshan mountains.
