Pyrites are in a considerable percent in the deposit and contain small amount of! copper. There are several zones enriched in galena and marmatite, but economical value seems tobe unimportant, Covellite. pyrrhotite and bornite are in negligible amounts in complex mineralized zones. Quartz is the main gang mineral and distinguished in two generations. The second generation quartz was formed partly by the hydrothermal solutions and partly by recrystallizatlon of the first generation quartz. Feldspars and micas were completely replaced and altered to clay minerals, sericite and chlorite, usually without leaving any remenant of the primary minerals. Te and Ag content pyrite and chalcopyrite as a minor element is of economical value.Read More
