Wu Junyao, director of the Zhaotong Municipal Natural Resources and Planning Bureau, introduced that two village groups, Hexing and Heping, in Liangshui Village, Tangfang Town, Zhenxiong County, suffered collapse geological disasters. The collapse area belongs to structural erosion and denudation in the steep slope terrain of the mid-mountain landform, with the slope direction being 60° and the slope The slope is greater than 30°, the top of the slope is steep, the foot of the slope is a gentle platform, and residential areas are distributed in the platform area at the foot of the slope.
After the disaster occurred, the Ministry of Natural Resources of China and the Yunnan Provincial Department of Natural Resources immediately organized more than 30 experts to rush to the scene and quickly conduct preliminary surveys of the landslide and threat areas.

The colluvial body After the collapse to the central slope area, the colluvial material's strong impact force moved to the middle and lower steep slope area, scraping the surface soil to form a collapse debris flow and impacting to the foot of the slope, with a total volume of about 70,000 cubic meters.
The landslide debris flow caused the houses below to collapse, burying 47 people from 18 households. The height difference between the collapse area and the residential area was about 150 meters.
