Shuijing is a little town on the way between Pingwu and Huya. The altitude is approx 2.000 m. Scheelites from this deposit have crystals with steeper faces and deeper orange color than those from Huya, and are associated with quartz, but not with mica, beryl and cassiterite. Most finds came from diggings in the weathered rock and not from mining in veins.
