A study on mineralization of Cheonbo gold mine

The Cheonbo gold mine is located approximately 8km northeast of Cheonan in southern part of Korean peninsula. The Cheonbo gold deposits are composed of parallel-filling quartz veins that are associated with the Cheonan granite which intruded the surrounding Precombrian metamorphic country rocks. Rb/sr date of the granitic intrusion is 170$\pm$0.3m.y., suggesting a middle Jurassic age for gold materialization.
