　　The refractory clay is distributed in the areas of Haizemiao and Fugu Town. Preliminary surveys indicate reserves of 5.35 million tons. Testing by the Building Research Institute of the State Economic and Trade Commission shows that the raw material contains 43% alumina (ALO) and has a refractoriness of over 1,790°C. The clay is of high quality, has a wide range of uses, and most of it is exposed at the surface, allowing for open-pit mining. It is an important material for producing high-alumina refractory bricks and household ceramics.
