Located ∼ 2 km southwest of the Ke’eryin batholith, the Taiyanghe composite batholith spans ∼ 15 km north–south and ∼ 5 km east–west. Its internal structure comprises Redamen pluton (quartz diorite) in the northwest–emplaced as an inverted rounded-triangular body into deformed Triassic strata without showing internal deformation (indicating post-tectonic emplacement)–and biotite monzogranite along its northern, eastern, and southern margins, with transitional contacts between the two units. This is an I-type, high-K calc-alkaline complex of fine- to coarse-grained diorite to monzodiorite. Geochemical analyses reveal average grades: 1.25 % Li2O (0.71–2.46 %), 0.0036 % BeO (0.021–0.061 %), 0.0079 % Nb2O5, and 0.0036 % Ta2O5, demonstrating economic rare metal concentrations.
