Hydrothermal activity is widely distributed throughout the study area, mainly in the form of quartz veins that cut across both the gneiss and quartz monzonite. These veins vary in thickness and are commonly associated with sulfide mineralization. The sulfides occur as disseminations, vein infillings, and locally massive aggregates within the quartz veins .The mineral assemblage observed in the veins includes abundant sulfides, with visible metallic minerals such as galena occurring locally. The presence of galena, along with other sulfides, indicates a polymetallic hydrothermal system.
