The Pingmiao deposit is a W-Cu deposit and contains 89 orebodies and a total of 41,500 t WO3, with WO3 grade of 0.129–0.323% (average of 0.174%). Besides the W mineralization, previous studies also reported small- to medium-sized Cu mineralization (up to 73.97 m in thickness for the Cu-orebody in line 19, with an average grade of 0.354%; that coexist with W in the Pingmiao deposit. In addition, the Pingmiao deposit is also potential for Nb and Ta mineralization. The mineralization type in the Pingmiao deposit can be generally divided into two main types, i.e., vein-type (including large quartz veins and small veinlets) and altered granite-type, among which the former one is of greatest importance.
