Locality Description
There were good mineral prospects for tin and tungsten in Kayah and Tanintharyi. For Kayah state, Mawchi mine is the one of the major Sn-W mine in Myanmar. It is a world class tin and tungsten mine during pre-war period 1930s (Hobson 1941). This Sn–W deposit occurs where a tourmaline-rich granite cupola has intruded clay slates, argillites, very fine-grained sandstones, quartz grits, calcareous mudstones and limestones of the Mergui Group (formerly Mawchi Series). In the contact zone, the granite has slightly metamorphosed these rocks to indurated shales, quartzites, spotted schists and crystalline limestones (Khin Zaw & Khin Myo Thet 1983).
