Qiushuwan Cu-Mo deposit is the largest copper deposit in Henan Province even though it only has the middlescale copper and molybdenum resources individually in Chinese standards. The deposit is located at about 35 kilometers Northwest of Nanyang which is the nearest major city in southwest Henan. Since 1970s, it has been intermittently explored and mined in the region. In the recent years, the newly molybdenum mineralization around has been discovered, resulting the enthusiasm of the exploration and development of the region.
