Algoma-type iron deposit, hosted in a complicated fault. The deposit consists of multiple layers of stratiform and lensoid orebodies with an average thickness of 10 m and extensions of up to 300 m. The minerals are mainly banded, with minor laminations. Locally, paragneiss structures occur. Host rocks are granulite facies biotite microgneiss, sillimanite gneiss derived from mafic volcanic rocks, intermediate volcanic graywacke, felsic volcanic graywacke and muddy siltstone that formed in a moderately deep Archean volcanic and sedimentary basin. The Rb-Sr isotopic age of the sequence is more than 3,500 Ma.
