Porphyry, skarn and stratabound copper-molybdenum deposit.
Located about 20 km SW of Daye.
The Tongshankou deposit is a porphyry-/skarn-type Cu–Mo deposit, and is spatially associated with granodiorite porphyry stock. The deposit has an ore reserve of 52.1 Mt Cu @ 0.96%, 4.36 Mt Mo @ 0.103%, and 1200 t WO3 @ 0.185%. The orebodies are hosted in both the granodiorite and its intrusive contact with the Daye Fm. carbonates.


Note: "Tongchankou" is a misnomer.
