Perama Hill deposit, Alexandroupoli (Alexandroupolis), Évros Prefecture, Thraki Department (Thrace; Thracia), Greece

High-sulfidation Au-Ag-Te-Se epithermal system hosted in silicic- and argillic altered andesitic rocks and overlying sandstones.

Early stage silica-pyrite rock and argillic alteration were followed by the deposition of sulfide-, sulfosalt- and telluride-bearing quartz-barite veins and stockworks.

Discovered by Thracean Gold Mining S.A. in 1995.
