Host strata deposited several coal–sand–coal stacks represent braided river delta sediments. Orebodies occur at downsizing sites of host sandbodies and near contact zones with underlying or overlying mudstone. Lenticular orebodies are located in sandbodies of J2x3; roll-shaped and tabular orebodies are comparably located in sandbodies of J1s1 and J2x1.
