Two deposits were bisected in SDH001-18 (282 m), including the Upper sulphide-rich breccia zone and lower stockwork zone. The upper mineralized zone consists of a high level of epithermal, including antimony, zinc, lead, and copper deposits. However, the lower mineralized zone consists of arsenic, antimony, copper and gold deposit.
