Jinqingding (Rushan) Au deposit, Rushan Co., Weihai Prefecture, Jiaodong Gold Province, Shandong Province, China

Granitoid-related gold deposit, hosted in Kunyushan gneissic granite, and consisting quartz veins, veinlets and disseminations. At shallow depth, local Cu bodies occur. Gold is mainly hosted in pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena, as interstitial and fissure fillings, and as inclusions. The deposition is divided into five metallogenic stages: K feldspar, sericite, quartz-pyrite, quartz-base metallic sulphide, and quartz-pyrrhotite-ferroan dolomite, with the third and fourth stages being the most important.
