Deposit | Model Name = Kuroko massive sulfide (Cox and Singer, 1986; model 28a) |
Deposit | Other Comments = High geochemical values of arsenic, antimony, mercury, and tungsten may be derived from older schist basement. Anderson Mountain is significantly different from prospects in the Totatlanika Schist belt to the north (e.g. HE122) in having higher Cu content. |
