Pingding (Dingping; Xionghuangpo) Au-As-Hg deposit, Western Qinling gold belt, Ruo'ergai Co. (Zoigê Co.), Ngawa (Aba) Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, China

Carlin-like gold deposit, hosted in Middle Devonian tuffaceous slates.

The veins in the Pingding area are worked by two mines, the Pingding Mine and the Xionghuangpo Mine, or "Realgar mine" (Xionghuangpo means Realgar in Mandarin). The mines are about 1 km apart and the mineralization met underground is essentially the same.

Note: "Dingping" appears to be a mis-nomer.
