Other/historical names associated with this locality:
"Rushan"; "Shangping"


A small hill mined by local farmers for mineral specimens. The area consists of iron-rich quartz veins.

NOTES:
Sometimes, the locality is erroneously referred to either as Rushan or as Shangping. However, the former is located in Shandong Province, whereas the latter is located near Xunwu, about 80 km further north-northeast.

Check your "hematite" specimens with an ordinary magnet - they may be magnetite pseudomorphs after hematite.
