Active geothermal field, comprising 62 hot spring groups occurring along a NS-striking main fault. Country rocks in the area are mainly late Cretaceous granitoids, with minor late Tertiary and Quaternary volcanics, sandstone and conglomerate. The field is sub-divided in a northeast and a southwest section, referred to as the Huangguaqing-Liuhuangtang and Reshuitang fields, respectively.
