Kengma (Dachang ore field)

Dachang ore field, Nandan County, Hechi, Guangxi, China

Other hydrothermalSn-Zn-Sb-Cu

Type
Stratiform bodies and tin-polymetallic veins in black shale

Deposit in the eastern part of the Dachang field: stratiform bodies in Lower Devonian black shale and mudstone, and veins cutting the Lower and Middle Devonian; cassiterite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite, pyrite, quartz, calcite and fluorite (Fan et al., 2004). Strongly negative sulfur, mainly biogenic according to the authors. Coordinates of the Dachang ore field, to within a few kilometres. Indicative coordinates.
