The Fengshan ore field encompasses an area of about 100 square kilometers (29°42'-29°52' N, 115°20'-115°30' E). It comprises porphyry and skarn copper, gold, and molybdenum deposits and associated epithermal vein type lead, zinc, gold and silver mineralizations.

The ore field belongs to the Jiurui Mining District. The major structures in this area are a series of Indosinian NW-trending faults and WNW- to NNE-trending folds and faults, which superimpose on the NW-trending Changjiang deep fracture zone. Yanshanian intrusions occur as small stocks and dykes, and are distributed mainly along the faults or at fault-fault and fault-fold intersections. Intrusions mainly consist of granodiorite porphyry and quartz diorite porphyry, with minor diorite, quartz porphyry, monzogranite and granite porphyry, and are characterized by intrusive breccias. Carboniferous, Permian and Triassic carbonate rocks and shales are the main host strata. Porphyry, skarn and stratabound ore bodies occur in spatial association within individual deposits. The stratabound mineralization type, which is present in three of the four largest deposits, is of particular importance in this area.

The Fengshan ore field is a typical Au-Cu porphyry-skarn ore field. The stratigraphic sequence in this area consists of the Late Permian Dalong Formation and the concordantly overlying Early Triassic Daye Formation. The major structures are a series of nearly parallel ENE-EW trending, southward-dipping extensional faults with angles of 65° to 80°, and NE-trending faults. These faults largely control the distribution of orebodies and intrusions. The Late Mesozoic intrusions predominantly comprise granodiorite porphyry, quartz porphyry, and quartz monzonite porphyry, and are responsible for the porphyry-skarn Cu-Au mineralization. The Fengshan ore field constitute a Cu-Au-Mo mineralization system related to the granodiorite porphyry, encompassing the porphyry Cu (−Au) deposit at the eastern part and the Fengsandong and Jilongshan Au (−Cu) skarn deposits at the western part of the ore field. Additionally, several Au skarn deposits are distributed in the sedimentary rocks, such as Caojiashan and Zhulintang. The ages of granodiorite porphyry in these deposits are 146–148 Ma.
