Sandy shale-type copper deposit.

This deposit, as the largest vein-type Cu deposit in the Lanping Basin, contains > 7.75 Mt ores at 2.58 % Cu. The Sm–Nd dating of the ore-related calcite yielded an age of 58.2 ± 5.3 Ma. In the ore field, the Middle Jurassic Huakaizuo (J2h) and Upper Jurassic Bazhulu (J3b) formations, both of which underwent strong deformation and low-grade metamorphism, comprise the major host strata. The main No. 1 orebody, which is controlled by the F2 fault (Fig. 3b), is 1350 m × 1.2–15 m and 350 m deep, with a mean Cu grade of 2.04 %. The orebodies consist of Cu sulfide–quartz–carbonate veins and altered wall-rocks. The thicknesses of the veins vary from several millimeters to tens of centimeters. The wall-rocks have undergone variable degrees of hydrothermal alteration including silicification, sericitization, carbonatization, and sulfidation, mainly around the hydrothermal veins.
