Types, characteristics and metallogenesis of gold deposits in the
In the ore-controlling NNW-striking and NE-dipping faults, the ore bodies are inclined toward NNW, as in the case of the Majiayao Gold Deposit in the Qixia City (S.X. Li et al., 2007). The regional inclination pattern of the gold deposits suggests that ore-controlling faults were under the same stress field during the ore formation process.
