U+9231 "鈱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鈱
U+9231 "鈱" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese logograph, primarily found in classical or technical texts. It is composed of the radical for metal or gold (钅) on the left, suggesting a connection to metal, tools, or currency, and the phonetic component "民" (mín) on the right. The character's precise meaning is often cited as "a kind of metal" or "mineral," but it is not commonly used in modern standard Mandarin or Japanese, and its individual reading and semantic range may vary depending on historical or regional contexts. As an encoded character in the Unicode standard, it preserves a niche part of East Asian written heritage for scholarly or digital representation.
