A bedded copper- and cobalt-bearing pyrites orebody, hosted in metamorphic rocks. 1800m long N-S, 600m in depth and 7.8m in average thickness. The ore deposits are constructed from seven orebodies; Hokubu-OREBODY, Shin-OREBODY, Shinshin-OREBODY, Honpi-OREBODY, NO.17-0REBODY, Uwaban-OREBODY and Nanbu-OREBODY from north to south.
Mined from 1941 to 1979 with 680x104 metric tons of ore.
