Yuntai Mountain region, is located in the central segment of the Jiangnan orogenic belt. It spans coordinates ranging from latitude 28° 09’ N to 28° 17’ N and longitude 110° 39’ E to 110° 52’ E, situated within Hunan Province, South China. The Yuntai Mountain area exhibits numerous strata, spanning the period from the Neoproterozoic to the Cenozoic. The Yuntai Mountain area contains a few magmatic rocks, primarily granite, with rock masses mainly dating back to the Silurian period. The sedimentary rock strata are well preserved and diverse, including sandstone, limestone, carboniferous shale, siliceous rock, and morainic conglomerate. Notably, the region exhibits complex deformation with various types and episodes of metamorphism having developed. The predominant metamorphic rocks are slates, which serve as ore-bearing strata for the formation of gold–antimony deposits.
