I WENT on  a  field  survey  with  geology  students  in  2017  to  Ywangan  Region  in  Danu  Self  Adminis-tered  Zone.  Ywangan  Town  is  at an elevation of 4,028 ft. above sea level. It was formed with 28 village tracts and had a popula-tion  of  more  than  82,000.  It  was  in  Shan  State  south  and  can  be  reached from Aungban-Pindaya road junction.
