Bauxite deposit, consisting of stratiform and lenticular bodies up to 1800 m long and 400 m wide, hosted in a sequence of (from the bottom to the top) sedimentary Fe deposit, bauxite, refractory clay deposit, clay shale, carbonaceous shale and coal seams. The sequence is 8-20 m thick and belongs to the lower member of the Benxi formation. The underlying strata is Mid-Ordovician limestone. In the mine, the strata are monoclinal with a dip angle of 3-5°. Oblique bedding occurs in deposit minerals that occur in masses and in oolites.
