(Muzeinyi sai)

A rhodonite body located in a highland valley (sai = valley) some km from the Trudovoe (Trudovoye) tin deposit.
The ore body is located on the northern slope of the Inyl'chek Range (exocontact of the Inyl'chek Sn-bearing granite massif).
Now this body is almost competely mined for jewellery rhodonite.
