Located in the southwestern part of the Ganhang metallogenic belt (also known as Ganhang uranium ore belt). The area straddles the border between Chongren and Le'an counties. 3 large deposits (Zoujiashan, Julong’an and Hengjian) and 7 medium ones (Yunji, Lijialing, Shidong, Hongwei, Gangshangying, Hutian and Shazhou), and the resource amount has exceeded thirty thousand tons with average grade of 0.1–0.3 % U.
The Xiangshan caldera is located in the southwest of the Gan-Hang volcanic belt, with an approximate east–west span of 26 km and a north–south span of 16 km.
Located in the southwestern part of the Ganhang metallogenic belt (also known as Ganhang uranium ore belt). The area straddles the border between Chongren and Le'an counties.

The Xiangshan area experienced two major volcanic-intrusive cycles, corresponding to the Daguding Formation and the Ehuling Formation, respectively, with a total thickness exceeding 2000 m. The Daguding Formation is mainly composed of rhyodacite, minor rhyolitic welded tuff, and intercalated clastic sedimentary rocks, whereas the Ehuling Formation is dominated by porphyritic lava with a small amount of welded tuff. Subsequently, subvolcanic rocks (granitic porphyry) intruded the pre-existing strata. The emplacement ages of the volcanic-intrusive complex in the Xiangshan ore field are concentrated between 145 and 130 Ma. The Xiangshan ore field contains over 27,400 tons of U3O8 down to a depth of 1.5 km, with an average grade of 0.1–0.3 wt% U. In the past two decades, uranium resources have increased in the deeper and peripheral areas of the ore field. Dozens of uranium deposits and anomalies, mainly concentrated in the northern and western parts of the volcanic basin, have been discovered and intermittently mined for sixty years.
