Epithermal depositsAu-Ag (Sb associe)

Type
Low-sulfidation epithermal

Hosted in a Neogene volcanic field. Stibnite-rich veins occur outside the main vein structures, with illite, illite-smectite and kaolinite alteration. Late fluids were of low salinity (below 2 wt% NaCl equivalent) and low temperature (below 150 °C).
