A team was continuing to search for 64 people missing after Wednesday's landslide in Shanyang county, Shaanxi province, on Thursday.
One person believed to be missing came forward on Thursday afternoon to say he had not been in the area when the landslide struck, as authorities had previously thought.
The search was halted briefly early on Thursday morning when it began to rain and large cracks were discovered in the mountainside by the rescue team.
