Lithology includes peridotite to serpentine, serpentine petrochemical rock, serpentinite and dunite . 157 small chromite ore bodies have been found, and chromium iron ore bodies appear in groups. According to distribution range of the chromium iron ore bodies, 10 ore belts have been divided from west to east. Through analysis and study on chromium spinel samples, and compared with other orebearing rock samples of chromium spinel, ore prospecting directions in different combinations from lithology of the rock have been determined.
