The Yuku Molybdenum ore field comprises Shibaogou, Huangbeiling, and Yuku granitic plutons and the following are the principal deposits:
(i) Dongyuku porphyry-skarn Molybdenum-Wolfram;
(ii) Zhongyuku skarn-hydrothermal Zn-S; and
(iii) Dawanggou and Yindonggou hydrothermal Pb-Zn-Ag.

Additional deposits include:
(i) Yumugou porphyry-skarn Mo-W;
(ii) Shibaogou skarn Mo-Pb-Zn;
(iii) Huangbeiling porphyry-skarn; and
(iv) Zhazigou skarn W-Mo.

The largest exposed pluton in the Luanchuan area is the Shibaogou, covering an area of 2.6 km2. The pluton has an ellipsoidal shape with steep and complex contacts with the country rocks in its western and southern margins, and a relatively flat contact in its northeastern margin.
