A large number of gemquality red corundum (also known as ruby) has been found in metamorphic rocks in Archean Taishan group in Xintai city of Shandong province. Its commercial and individual provisional name is "Taishan ruby". Ruby occurred in rock inclusions in the crust of Neoarchean monzogranite. The property of inclusions is mainly composed of biotite oligoclase granulite, biotite schist, hornblende rock, plagioclase amphibolite and green chromium bearing monzonite mica schist rock. It is the deep melting residue of ancient Archean crust. It has close relation with light green chromium-containing two feldspar micacite. It is regarded that red corundum may be the phenocryst mineral of new Archean metavolcanic rocks.
