Some of the Guanghan jade made its way into the collection of the museum at Huaxi University, and five years after the original discovery, the museum dispatched a team to carry out a formal survey and excavation of the area where the farmer had found the jade. In addition to jade, the team also unearthed large amounts of pottery.
