Type
Wolframite-quartz veins

Wolframite-quartz vein deposit in a Yanshanian granite. According to Zhang (1988), wolframite at about +5 ‰ and quartz at about +12 ‰, formed at about 300 to 350 °C from re-equilibrated magmatic water of W-Sn granites. Written "Dengbuxian" in the paper: this is the Dengfuxian granite and the Xiangdong mine (Mindat coordinates of Xiangdong). Indicative coordinates.
