The '''Suining Formation''' ({{Lang-zh|s=遂宁组|t=遂寧組|p=Suìníng Zǔ}}) is a geological [[Formation (geology)|formation]] in China whose strata date back to the [[Early Cretaceous]]. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation. A 2019 paper shows zircon dating of the Suining Formation with a much younger age for the classically thought of Late Jurassic formation; the average age of the dating being roughly 114 myo or late upper Aptian.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Wang |first1=Jun |last2=Norell |first2=Mark A. |last3=Pei |first3=Rui |last4=Ye |first4=Yong |last5=Chang |first5=Su-Chin |title=Surprisingly young age for the mamenchisaurid sauropods in South China |journal=Cretaceous Research |date=July 2019 |volume=104 |page=104176 |doi=10.1016/j.cretres.2019.07.006 |bibcode=2019CrRes.10404176W }}</ref><br />
