A giant porphyry-skarn deposit. The third largest Au deposit in China with estimated 323 t of Au, by the 2.47 g/t concentration.

The gold-copper-polymetallic ore bodies are hosted in Triassic limestones and shale and Quartenary sediments around alkaline porphyries and Permian basalts. The ore bodies are grouped in two ore zones, each of which comprises several mines (ore blocks): the Hongnitang, Jingouba and Wandongshan mines in the western ore zone, and the Bijiashan, Weiganpo and Wulipan mines in the eastern ore zone. Deposits comprises porphyry, skarn and supergene styles

Note: The grid reference is centered on the area.
