The intrusion-related, polymetallic ore deposits of Plaka are genetically related to the emplacement of a Miocene biotite +/- hornblende granodioritic body and granodiorite porphyry dikes/sills within metamorphic Mesozoic rocks of the Attic-Cycladic Crystalline Belt.
The ore system includes porphyry, breccia-type, skarn, skarn-free carbonate replacement and vein-type ores enriched in Mo, W, Pb, Zn, Cu, As, Sb, Bi and Ag.
