Mineral products of our country barite has a few apparent characteristics, the respect that measuring basically distributings in mid area; In grade respect almost all rich ore basically is centered in Guizhou, Guangxi; Bed with big, medium-sized give priority to, only ground of two mineral products occupies new Huang Gongxi of edge of great river of Guizhou day column and Hunan large and medium-sized the half above of producing area reserves, and in all, reserves of companion crude mineral products is much, benefit at be being used integratedly.

Field of our country's main large, oversize constant with onefold barite model for main ore type, belong to bed of layer shape barite, ore has apparent deposit construction and structure, mineral composition and chemical composition are simpler, qualitative pure. If Hunan shakes Gong Xi newly barite mine, ore body is a shape, shape that be like a layer commonly, a few meters long to a few kilometers, thick 0.3 ～ 7m, general 1 ～ 2m. Ore basically is comprised by barite and calcite, barite content 55% ～ 99% .

Our country still has a lot of companion to lay barite field, although its do not have alone exploitation or the value that use, but can be used integratedly or extract incidentally, regard production as the by-product of the process. For example, the unit such as company of wine spring iron and steel is right already the accrete barite in iron ore of hill of the spiegeleisen austral Gansu Province respectful has done mineral separation to experiment, begin use research integratedly.
