Abstract
The comment by Yin (2024) referred to the systematic morphology and identification of the newly recovered in situ ammonite assemblage Tiltoniceras sp. and Hildoceratidae sp. from the Bilong Co section in the Qiangtang Basin. Yin (2024) suggests that Tiltoniceras sp. should be assigned to Oxycerites aspidoides. Upon re-examination of our paper and the reply to the released comment, it is demonstrated that the morphologic characteristics of the recovered ammonites are more consistent with Tiltoniceras rather than Oxycerites aspidoides. These ammonites, along with in situ calcite U–Pb age (ca. 181 Ma), carbon isotope stratigraphy, and age-diagnostic palynomorphs, constrain the age of the Bilong Co oil shale to the Lower Jurassic (Toarcian) with plausible credentials.

期刊介绍：
Minerals (ISSN 2075-163X) is an international open access journal that covers the broad field of mineralogy, economic mineral resources, mineral exploration, innovative mining techniques and advances in mineral processing. It publishes reviews, regular research papers and short notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.
