Polymetallic deposit (Mo-W, Cu-Pb-Zn, Fe) with porphyry, stratabound, vein-type, skarn and greisen-style mineralization, hosted in Devonian and Carboniferous sedimentary rocks that are intruded by the Dabaoshan granodiorite porphyry stock and dykes of various lithologies (dacite porphyry, granodiorite porphyry, diabase, lamprophyre, quartz diorite, dolerite).

The deposit is mined for iron and copper (ore reserves: 75 million tonnes).

Secondary minerals in the tailings only considers those found by SEM and not minerals found by XRF. Liu(2018) The site has been mined intermittently since the Song Dynasty (960–1279 CE) for extracting metals.
