Tectonic subdivision of mainland Thailand has been discussed by means of Paleozoic and Mesozoic stratigraphy, micropaleontology represented by fo-raminiferal and radiolarian biostratigraphy and paleo-biogeography, tectonic settings of granitoids, and ul-tramafic rocks that are distinctive of suture lines. Re-cently, Ueno (2002) and Ueno and Charoentitilat (2011) proposed a new tectonic scheme of mainland Thailand and divided it into three geotectonic units: the Sibu-masu Block, Sukhothai Zone, and Indochina Block from west to east, which are separated by the Mae Yuan Fault, the Chiang Rai Tectonic Line, and the Nan–Uttaradit Suture, respectively. In Northern Thai-land, moreover, the peculiar Inthanon Zone is recog-nized in the eastern part of the Sibumasu Block, where Paleo-Tethyan oceanic rocks are widely distributed as tectonic slices. These geotectonic subdivisions in Northern Thailand are relatively clear. However, the tectonic subdivisions of Central and Southeast Thai-land have not been well documented and are still con-troversial because there is short of information about basement rocks in those areas. In this circumstance, we have examined Paleozoic to Mesozoic stratigraphy, lithology, and radiolarian ages of siliceous rocks dis-tributed in Southeast Thailand to clarify the geotec-tonic belongings of this area and the southern exten-sions of geotectonic units consisting of Northern Thailand. In the course of this research, we could ob-tain Middle to Late Devonian radiolarians from well-bedded siliceous rocks distributed in southwest of Klaeng, Rayong Province. In this study, we report lithology and age of the radiolaria-bearing rocks and discuss their stratigraphy and geological correlation nearby the Klaeng region.  相似文献
