本文旨在介绍中缅第三纪带（Colbert，1935）或内缅第三纪盆地（Bender，1983）西部中始新世晚期地层，毗邻印缅山脉东侧。因此，它与缅甸中部西北部高地地区或“N22°构造高”地区的Pondaung组的磨拉石型沉积有关。本报告以早期的论文（Aye Ko Aung，1997年，1999年; Aung Naing Soe，1999年）为基础，这些论文主要涉及Pondaung组上部的地层学和沉积相分析。在这些论文中，很少注意到Pondaung组与上下层单元之间的边界特征。本报告不包括Pondaung山脉中露出地表的始新世沉积物，因为这些沉积物已由（1922）和Cotter（1914，1938）进行了全面描述。
This review paper is intended to cover the late Middle Eocene strata occurring in the western part of the Central Burma Tertiary Belt (Colbert, 1935) or Inner-Burman Tertiary Basin (Bender, 1983), adjacent to the east side of the Indo-Burman Ranges. It is therefore concerned with the molasse-type sediments of the Pondaung Formation in the upland area, or “N22° tectonic high” area, in the northwestern part of central Myanmar. This report builds on earlier papers (Aye Ko Aung, 1997, 1999; Aung Naing Soe, 1999), which were primarily concerned with stratigraphy and sedimentary facies analysis of the upper part of the Pondaung Formation. In those papers little attention was given to the boundary characters between the Pondaung Formation and the units above and below. The present report does not include the Eocene sediments outcropping in the Pondaung range, as these have been comprehensively described by (1922) and Cotter 1914, 1938).
