Subvolcanic epithermal adularia-sericite type gold deposit.
The Dongpuzi gold deposit is located in the southernmost part of the Huanghuadianzi–Dayingzi–Shaozi River extensional structure, in the south margin of the Shaozi River volcanic fault basin.
The Dongpuzi gold deposit consists of 13 mineralized alteration zones (No. I, I-1, II, III, V, V-1, VI, VI-1, VIII, IX, X, etc.), which contain 30 gold orebodies, with an average grade of 5 gt−1. The gold orebodies are hosted within the Early Cretaceous trachyte porphyry and structurally controlled by NE–SW- to NNE–SSW-trending faults and fracture zones. Gold mineralization occurs mainly as pyrite–sericite–quartz-altered rocks and auriferous quartz–pyrite veins and veinlets. The major orebodies are No. V and No. VI, which account for more than 77% of the total metal reserves of the Dongpuzi deposit.
