This area is mainly composed slate unit, mudstone unit and minor exposed greywacke and sandstone unit which all have the possibly Carboniferous Age. Granite was sparsely occurring at the central part of the study area. Gold grains can see in some samples as visible gold which is intergrowth with pyrite and chalcopyrite. At deeper levels, gold occurs as submicron sizes inclusions in the lattice of sulphides mineralogy and also observed as a free gold. The main constituent ore minerals are gold and pyrite associated with minor amount of chalcopyrite, magnetite and sphalerite. Temperature measurements of fluid inclusions homogenization (Th) is (198-243) °C, melting temperature (Tm)-0.5°C and salinity of fluid is 0.89 wt% NaCl eq. According to the fluid inclusions results and mineralogy study, gold mineralization of the present study area can be determined mesothermal deposit type.
