Medium-scale Au-Ag epithermal vein deposit, hosted by Archean migmatite and Jurassic volcanic and sedimentary rocks. Varied dikes are also seen in the deposit. The orebodies are stratiform, lenticular and veined. The minerals occur in veins, veinlets, breccia, disseminations and combs, and exhibit idiomorphic granular, xenomorphic granular, inclusion-like and cataclastic textures. There are three deposition types observed: (1) altered metallic sulphide breccia; (2) metallic sulphide-comb quartz vein and (3) disseminated K-feldspar-altered rock. Alteration around the veins includes K feldspar, silica, pyrite and carbonate alteration. The ore-forming hydrothermal fluids are believed to derive from magmatic hydrothermal solutions and meteoritic precipitation. The deposit-forming temperature is about 200Β°C and the pressure is about 19.2 MPa.
