But I thought all the continents were one back then so there was no China; and probably no volcano either.

Comet was K-T extinction, end of the Dinosaurs, some think Vulcanism about the same time in India is now thought to have at least help out.
This one is the P-T extinction end of the mammal like reptiles, giving rise to the dinosaurs.

mmmm, dark chocolate...
It’ll have to be a trail of something else, or I’ll be walking in circles.
