Ada Tepe is a typical low-sulfidation epithermal gold deposit, unusual in that it is older than adjacent magmatic-related deposits and is hosted in Maastrichtian–Paleocene sedimentary rocks above a detachment fault contact with underlying Paleozoic metamorphic rocks.
Gold mineralization is located in: (1) a massive, tabular orebody above the detachment fault; and (2) open space filling ores along predominantly east–west oriented listric faults. The ores are zones of intensive silicification and brecciation synchronous with detachment faulting.
Part of the Krumovgrad gold field.
The oldest gold mine in Europe; it has operated from 1500 to about 600 BC.
Located near Krumovgrad, on the summit of the Ada Tepe ridge.
