Vote for your favorite mineral in #MinCup26! - Sphalerite vs. Anorthite
Both zinc ore Sphalerite and calcium plagioclase feldspar Anorthite have perfect cleavage that will split cleanly if you hit them with a hammer, but only one can claim a larger split of your votes!

Quartz vein-type antimony-tungsten deposit, located in the northeastern part of the ore field. The deposit produces fine stibnite specimens that are often labelled as coming from "Nandan", or, erroneously, from "Nandan Mine".

According to the Nanjing University the correct location is: 24.8450009° N, 107.6346715° E. Also the Mine seems to be closed and no new specimens are mined.

Not to be confused with the Chashan Mine of Xianghualing ore field in Hunan Province.
