The sequence of exposed strata progressing was primarily comprising Devonian to Carboniferous shallow marine carbonate rocks, interspersed with a limited amount of littoral clastic rocks, and stratum trend was NWN-trending. Within the mining site, two distinct mineralization zones have been identified. The type-I mineralization is located within the marble and is considered the most crucial orebody, characterized by an average Cu of 1.39 % and Sn of 0.126 %. The type-II mineralization zone is found in the skarn, displaying uneven mineralization and average Cu and Sn grades of 0.43 % and 0.071 %, respectively.
