The Laosangou Mine is located to the west of the Heidaigou, Haerwusu, and Guanbanwusu Mines of the Jungar Coalfield. Highly enriched Al, Ga, Li, and REEs in the coals from the Laosangou Mine was recently reported by. The coals in the Taiyuan and Shanxi formations in the Laosangou area exhibit a notable co-enrichment of Al-Li-Ga and Nb-Ta-Zr-Hf assemblages. Notably, Li, Ga, and Zr concentrations throughout the coal seam as well as Nb and Ta concentrations in specific sections of the main recoverable No. 6 coal seam reach levels suitable for industrial utilization.
