Banded iron formation (BIF) in the southern part of the Anzhiling migmatite complex. The lower and middle part of the host strata consist of Paleoproterozoic amphibolite intercalated with amphibole leptynite and biotite leptynite. The leptynites are metamorphic prodcuts of intermediate-siliceous lava and tuff, and exhibit porphyritic structures. The upper part of the strata consists of interbedded biotite leptynite, granulite and amphibole leptynite, intercalated with multiple layers of amphibole magnetite quartzite. The mine explores four parallel stratiform and lensoid orebodies, the largest of which is 1400 m long and 22-125 m thick. The minerals are mainly laminated and banded.
