The dominant exposed strata in the deposit belong to the Changzhou Gou Formation of the Middle and Upper Proterozoic, covered by the Quaternary in the northeast and southwest. The lower Changzhou Gou Formation comprises conglomerate, gravel-bearing coarse sandstone, feldspar quartz sandstone, and quartz sandstone. Moving upwards, the lithology changes to quartzitic sandstone interbedded with sandstone and sandy shale. The Changzhou Gou Formation plays a crucial role as the host rock for Au deposits in both the southeast and northwest of the Malanyu metamorphic core complex. In the deposit, a total of 11 Au ore bodies composed of Au-bearing quartz veins have been discovered, mainly within NW–NNW trending fault structures. These ore bodies extend 100–500 m at the surface, with a width ranging from 0.3 to 5.0 m. The ore bodies dip toward the southwest, with a dipping angle of 41°–75°. The ore bodies predominantly occur as parallel single veins with generally constant thicknesses. The average Au grade is 1.08 g/t in the Au-bearing quartz. There are two mineralization stages in the deposit, including a quartz-pyrite stage and a quartz-polymetallic sulfide stage.
