Low–sulfidation epithermal Au–Ag–Te deposit
Tellurium-rich quartz vein-type gold deposit.
A total reserve of β‰₯25 tons of gold and an average grade of 15 g/t. A major gold deposit in which the gold telluride minerals are the dominant ore, with more than 95% of recovered gold occurring as tellurides.
Quartz veins at Sandaowanzi contain Au- and Ag-tellurides. The ore bodies (40 in three belts) are hosted in the Early Cretaceous Longjiang Formation (andesite and andesite breccia) along WNW-trending normal faults. Ore body II is the only current operating stope. The lenticular ore body is 212.6 m long and 0.81–14.3 m thick (averaging ∼ 6 m). The ore body strikes 20-40Β°, dips 58-77Β°, and plunges to a depth of 520 m along the dip direction. The average grade of ore body II is 13.98 g/t Au.
