A tin and sulphur mine working network veins in sedimentary rock and granite porphyry. Wall rocks highly altered by silicification, chloritization, sericitization, and sideritization. Dumps have been revegetated and no mineralized rock is visible at the site. The only ongoing activity here is a water treatment plant for the acid mine effluent.
