Baiyangping Cu-Ag-Co deposit, Fulongchang ore field, Lanping Co., Nujiang Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China

Vein-type polymetallic deposit, hosted in limestone and dolomite of the Upper Triassic Sanhedong Formation, and sandstones of the Lower Cretaceous Jingxing and Eocene Baoxiangsi formations. The orebodies mostly occur in veined, network and lenticular forms. Ore fabrics are characterized by crystallization and replacement textures and veined, network, brecciated and disseminated structures.
