The Shizhuyuan tungsten polymetallic deposit, which is characterized by the multi mineral, large scale, abundant symbiotic components and complex genesis, is located in the central segment of Nanling region. It is rare in the world as a super large W-Sn-Mo-Bi polymetallic deposit, and considered as the world mineral museum. The ore deposit is located in the intersection of south China fold system, southeast Hunan Caledonian fold belt and middle-south Hunan Indosinian fold belt, occurring in the contact zone of southeast Qianlishan granite and Devonian shale strip limestone. The formation of Shizhuyuan tungsten polymetallic deposit was closely related to Qianlishan granite. Outward from the granite contact zone, there are four orebodies, including greisen type W-Sn-Mo-Bi ore (IV), net vein greisen skarn type W(Sn)-Mo-Bi ore (III), skarn type W-Bi ore (II) and net vein marble type tin ore (I).
