猫岭金矿床, 盖州市, 营口市, 辽东半岛, 辽宁省, 中国

Disseminated gold mineralization within a sequence of altered phyllitic metapelite to meta-siltstone, associated with sheeted quartz vein sets and 3-5% disseminated sulphide mineralization. Thus far, resources of 25.9 million tonnes at 1.3 grams/tonne (1.1 million ounces of gold) and inferred resources of 117.0 million tonnes at 1.2 grams/tonne (4.4 million ounces of gold) have been outlined.
