The mass burial of dinosaur bone fossils in the Upper Cretaceous Wangshi Group in Zhucheng Basin has been a research focus in recent years. However, the provenance of the dinosaur bone fossils and the accurate depositional age of the bone beds remain ambiguous. We study the depositional age of the dinosaur bone beds and trace their provenances.
