边家大院铅锌银矿, 林西县, 赤峰市, 内蒙古自治区, 中国

Mineralized cryptoexplosive breccia in the upper part of a granodiorite intrusion and quartz vein-style mineralization in its contact zone.
Reserves: 4.81 Mt @ 157 g/t Ag and 3.94 % Pb ± Zn.

This system encompasses porphyry Sn-Cu-Ag, hydrothermal vein Sn-Ag, and epithermal Ag. The verified resources amount to 0.35 Mt of Sn at a grade of 0.75 %, 727 Moz of Ag at 164 g/t, 0.9 Mt of Pb plus Zn at 4.8 %, 0.2 Mt of Sb at 0.32 %, 0.1 Mt of Cu at 0.2 % and 3839 t of Ga at 51 g/t. Porphyry-type alterations which encompass quartz-sericite-tourmaline-muscovite and epidote-chlorite-tourmaline, are respectively correlated with the disseminated-veinlet cassiterite, chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite and tetrahedrite ore mineral assemblages, as well as low-grade disseminated cassiterite mineralization.
