The Stori district represents a broad area of altered rocks within the Stori River canyon. The zone is developed on the southern slope of the Greater Caucasus in the Stori River canyon and was traced along strike for about 4 km until reaching the Abano bridge over the Stori River. The hydrothermal alteration in the district is developed within the Pliensbachian shales and sandstones. The altered rocks mainly comprise quartz-sericite-chlorite and quartz-albite-chlorite-epidote assemblages, which also contain abundant pyrite, indicating that the fluids were rich in iron and sulfur.
