Vein and stockwork-type U-Mo deposit. Its main ore body was discovered in 1964 and mined from 1978 to 1992, but still contains reserves of 1,600 tons of uranium. In 1986, another ore body was discovered about 700 m east of the main ore body. The eastern ore body is up to 650 m long, extends to a depth of 1,375 m below surface and contains estimated reserves of 6000 tons of uranium; it has not yet been mined.
