Geology & Mineralisation |
The South Gobi region hosts a wide range of gold, copper-gold and copper-molybdenum deposits. The Gobi Mineral lease, copper–gold porphyry deposits are situated in a poorly exposed inlier of Devonian mafic to intermediate volcanic, volcaniclastic, and sedimentary rocks that have been intruded by Devonian to Permian felsic plutons. These rocks are unconformably overlain by poorly consolidated Cretaceous sedimentary rocks and younger unconsolidated sedimentary deposits. |
