The south China in this paper refers to the broad region bounded on the west by Jinshajiang River-Yuanjing River Fracture, on the northwest by Longmenshan Fracture, on the north by Chengkou-Fangxian-Xiangfan-Guangji Fracture, on the northeast by Tancheng-Lujiang Fracture, on the east by Huanghai Sea and Donghai Sea, and on the south by Nanhai Sea. The area is about 2 000 000 km2. Based on the quantitative and qualitative data from the study of stratigraphy and petrology of outcrop and well sections, according to the single factor analysis and comprehensive mapping method, the single factor maps of the lower and middle part of the Lower Cambrian, the upper part of the Lower Cambrian, the Middle Cambrian and the Upper Cambrian, and the lithofacies palaeogeography maps of the Early and Middle Age of the Early Cambrian, the Late Age of the Early Cambrian, the Middle Cambrian and the Late Cambrian in South China were compiled. The most important character of these lithofacies palaeogeography maps is quantification. Quantification means that the determination of each palaogeography unit is based on the accurate quantitative data and single factor map. It is the first time in the study of the Cambrian in South China. There are 7 principal palaeogeographic units in the Cambrian in South China, i.e. Dianxi Platform, Kangdian Land, Yangtze Platform, Slope, Jiangnan Basin, Southeast Platform and Cathyasian Land. The Dianxi Platform, Kangdian Land, Yangtze Platfrom, Slope and Jiangnan Basin belong to the Kangdian palaeogeography system. The Southeast Platform and Cathaysian Land belong to the Cathaysian palaeogeography system. These two palaeogeography systems combine together and form the fundamental framework of lithofacies palaeogeography of the Cambrian in South China, i.e. 2 lands, 3 platforms, 1 basin and 1 slope. The characteristics of lithofacies palaeogeography of the Early and Middle Age of the Early Cambrian are different from that of the Late Age of Early Cambrian, Middle Cambrian and Late Cambrian. These are two evolutionary stages of lithofacies palaeogeography of the Cambrian in South China. These quantitative lithofacies palaeogeography maps are an important development in palaeogeography, and are the guide to the prediction and exploration of oil, gas and other mineral resources.
