The Zn–Pb orebody is primarily controlled by a structural combination of an NS-trending thrust fault and an EW-trending tear fault. It is hosted in the T3s4 calcareous fine sandstones in a nearly stratiform or irregular vein-like shape. The orebody trends NNE and dips toward NWW, exhibiting a slight “S” shape at the surface. In the vertical profile, the orebody exhibits a “dumbbell” shape with a morphology of thicker ends and a thinner middle section.
