Magmatic-hydrothermal quartz vein type gold deposit, related to a Triassic syenogranitic pluton. The orebodies are hosted in weakly metamorphosed Lower Silurian turbidites occurring along NNW-trending fracture zones. Silicification, sericitization and pyritization are closely related to gold mineralization.
