This paper discussed the characteristic of Suhongtu formation in Bayingebi basin based on the K-Ar isotopic age of basalt rock and the deposition character of the basin evolvement,it was found that Suhongtu formation had been developed from the beginning to the end of the basin in the early Cretaceous,but Suhongtu formation was asynchronous,Suhongtu formation in the west part was formed earlier which is characterized by a set of sediments with the interacted basalt of the 141-146 Ma K-Ar age and belong to lower Cretaceous,while Suhongtu formation in the east part was formed later which is characterized by a set of shrinking sediments with the interacted basalt of the 108-109 Ma K-Ar age and belongs to upper Cretaceous.Volcanic action in the basin was developed from west to east. The age span of Suhongtu formation reaches 30 Ma which is much longer than that of a normal formation.So it is suggested that Suhongtu formation should be divided.
