Deposits and occurrences with skarn type and quartz vein-type tungsten, tin, lead-zinc and minor bismuth and silver mineralization.
In the Baiyunxian ore field, exposed strata consist of the Neoproterozoic strata, the Devonian Tiaomajian, Qiziqiao, Shetianqiao, and Xikuangshan Formations, and the Lower Jurassic Yinkou Formation. The Neoproterozoic strata is a set of epimetamorphic rocks including slates, hornfels, and sandstones, with thickness of >900 m. The Devonian Tiaomajian Formation is composed of neritic facies clastic rocks such as quartz conglomerates, quartz sandstones, and pebbly sandstones, with thickness of >100 m. The Devonian Qiziqiao and Shetianqiao Formations are neritic facies carbonate rocks that consist of limestones, dolomites, dolomitic limestones, and argillaceous limestones, with varied thicknesses in the ore field. The Devonian Xikuangshan Formation is a set of neritic facies clastic-carbonate rocks similar to other three synchronous formations (e.g., limestones, argillaceous limestones, and quartz sandstones), with thickness of >100 m. The Lower Jurassic Yinkou Formation is continental facies clastic rocks that is characterized by quartz sandstones, siltstones, and arenaceous shales, with thickness of >150 m. Host rocks of quartz vein W deposits are characterized by pre-Jurassic sandy-clastic sedimentary rocks and the Jiufeng phase β…  biotite granite. In contrast, the Devonian carbonate rocks are major wall rocks of skarn W deposits.
