There is a close association with stratovolcanoes indicating very shallow levels of emplacement. Rather than the typical flaring stock, intrusions associated with tin deposits appear to be narrow finger-like projections. The main ore mineral is cassiterite, ore grades averaging 0.1-0.2% SnO2. The ore occurs as an early disseminated phase that is sub-ore grade followed later veins. Alteration consists of
