China Mines

There are thousands of mines in China, but only a small part of them produce
nice mineral specimen. I listed below some nice pictures of those mines I visited.
Wish you enjoy these pictures and feel free to email me if you have any
questions about China mines:)
One of the small Cinnabar Quarry in Yun Changping Mine, Tongren CO., Guizhou
Pro., China
Since the international demanding of Mercury decreased, most of the Cinnabar
Quarry in China closed. The same time, most of quarries are nearly exhausted. The
local Cinnabar specimen prices just fly higher and higher.
One small dolomite cavity in the limestone. Pity no Cinnabar there
The small entry to one Cinnabar Quarry in Yan wuping Mine, Tongren CO., Guizhou
Pro., China
Though the entry is small, the whole mountain inside has been dig out I guess.
The lake in Daye City, Hubei Pro., China. There are many famous mines in Daye:
Tong lushan mine and Feng Jiashan mine, etc. The most expensive specimen of
2008 Tucson show -- Purple color Calcites are just from here.
Dean Fluorite Mine, Jiangxi Pro., China
The nice purple phantom fluorites'  hometown.
Cheng menshan Copper mine, JiuJiang CO., Jiangxi Pro., China
Native copper, Azurite, Cuprite,....etc. But as I know, nothing come out in large
quantities in past two years.
