Adularia-sericite-type epithermal gold deposit, related to a Late Triassic granite intrusion that was in turn intruded by a Cretaceous granite stock and is overlain by a sequence of rhyolitic lavas and tuffs with minor dacite. Both the intrusion and the volcanic sequence are intruded by rhyolitic porphyry dykes. The ore bodies are controlled by a series of NS-, NE- and NNE-trending faults. Most of them are hosted within the dykes or in the lavas surrounding them, and one of them is hosted within the Triassic granite.
