Description
Abandoned trial openings are situated at Dajong, a village close to the head of the Rangpochu, about 3 miles (about 5 km in a direct line) north-west of Yangang monastery (N27°18': E088°26'). BOSE (in: RISELY 1928: 70): … steep scarps of the Dalings are seen from a distance to be stained green by carbonate of copper at places. The place is almost inaccessible and I could not explore it well within the time at my disposal.
