Long-form identifier:

mindat:1:2:422031:5

GUID (UUID V4):

Contains 42 economic ore bodies. Most ore bodies are veined, irregular or lenticular in shape. They generally show a NE trend and dip from 20° to 70° to the NW. Their lengths vary mainly from 59 to 720 m, and their thicknesses are mostly between 3 and 76 m. Most sulfide ore is hosted by crystal tuffs, crystalline limestone and marble of the Ordovician Duobaoshan Formation.
