Deposit LAS VETAS SON DE ORIGEN HIDROTERMAL, EPI-MESOTERMAL POR RELLENO DE FISURAS. LOS MANTOS SON UN REEMPLAZAMIENTO METASOMATICO EN CALIZAS. AMBOS TIPOS SE PRODUCEN POR EL EMPLAZAMIENTO DE UN CUERPO GRANODIORITICO QUE HA PRODUCIDO METASOMATISMO EN LAS CAJAS CALCAREAS Y RELLENADO LAS ESTRUCTURAS DE FALLA.
