Field relationships indicate that the Jumchon granite intruded the Pyungan Supergroup but the Daedong Supergroup overlies Jumchon granite nonconformably. This relationship suggests that the Jumchon granite intruded after the sedimentation of the Pyungan Supergroup (at Late Permian or younger), but before the sedimentation of the Daedong Supergroup (at Early Triassic). The Jumchon granite intruded thrusts within Pyungan Supergroup indicating that the thrust event occurred after the sedimentation of the Pyungan Supergroup but before the intrusion of Jumchon granite. This justifies a narrow age bracket of the first thrusting event of the Mungyeong area, from Late Permian to Early Triassic. In other localities, rocks of the Daedong Supergroup override the rocks of Pyungan Supergroup by thrusts, indicating that another thrust event occurred after sedimentation of the Daedong Supergroup (after Early Devonian).
