It is located in the Pingle Depression within the eastern segment of the Qin-Hang Metallogenic Belt. Four separate wollastonite deposits occur in the Mengshan mining area, those being the Caofangmiao, Yueguangshan-Heyi, Yapokeng, and Shizhushan wollastonite deposits, all of which share similar geological features. The Shizhushan deposit comprises twelve wollastonite orebodies. The two major orebodies within the Maokou Formation, denoted as the No. II and No. VIII orebodies, appear to be stratified and lenticular in shape, strike in the eastβwest direction, and dip to the south, with dip angles of βΌ 20β40Β°. These orebodies stretch for more than 4,800 m and 1,000 m along strike, and more than 1,300 m and 600 m along trend, and have average thicknesses of about 14.1 m and 14.7 m, respectively. Overall, the wollastonite orebodies of the Shizhushan deposit occur in the layered, chert-rich limestone of the Maokou Formation, and are bedded and lenticular in shape, with thicknesses varying from several decimeters to tens of meters. Economic orebodies are horizontally distributed at distances of βΌ 30β300 m from the Mengshan granitic pluton.
