Concentrations of CH₄ and CO₂ in the water column vary during the year within wide ranges: from 4 to 652 µg/L and from 0.19 to 19 mg/L, respectively. CH₄ concentrations in the surface layer are at approximately the same level from May through August, with values measured in the water (5.9 to 11 µg/L) more than one hundred times higher than the concentrations in equilibrium with the atmosphere (0.04 to 0.05 µg/L), indicating a methane flux to the atmosphere. The CO₂ concentrations decrease throughout the open water period and become lower than the equilibrium concentrations with the atmosphere by the end of August, indicating a change in the flux direction and uptake of CO₂ from the atmosphere.

These studies have been utilized to create a composite Mesozoic (Triassic to Cretaceous) δ¹³C and δ¹⁸O curves, which is useful for high-resolution stratigraphic correlation. The long-term trend of the created composite δ¹³C and δ¹⁸O profiles change on variable time scales (100’s of years), and show the major δ¹³C positive and negative excursions around the key Mesozoic timelines: the Carnian, Toarcian, Barremian-Aptian, Cenomanian-Turonian, upper Cretaceous and Cretaceous/Paleogene. Short-term fluctuations vary also on time scales of similar magnitudes, and dominated the δ¹³C signal in the Mid-Cretaceous. Generally, the observed changes in the Carbon-isotopic record have commonly been attributed to changes in the organic carbon flux to the sedimentary reservoir in response to eustatic sea-level change. However, it is also suggested that carbonate production and burial rate may have influenced the δ¹³C signal. During Triassic and Jurassic, increased inorganic carbon burial led to a shift towards more negative values in the ¹³C/¹²C ratio, which is probably linked to the expansion of pelagic carbonate deposits in epicontinental seas (e.g. Carnian and Toarcian carbonate). However, short-term variations in δ¹³C could either be due to local sea-level changes in the North African epicontinental sea or changes in oceanic ¹²C storage due to variations in different water properties circulation. In addition, oxygen isotopic data can serve as a useful tool for estimating paleotemperatures in instances where diagenesis is not a hindrance.

Geochronologic data indicate that the gold mineralization was formed during three ore-forming Paleozoic events. The early Late Ordovician–Early Silurian (450–430 Ma) event produced the abundant veinlet—disseminated gold–sulfide mineralization in Neoproterozoic carbonaceous terrigenous–carbonate rocks of the Baikal–Patom foldbelt (BPB). The mineralization was formed simultaneously with regional metamorphic processes. The rejuvenation of hydrothermal activity in the BPB resulted in gold-bearing quartz veins, which was produced in the Middle Carboniferous (340–330 Ma) in relation to postcollisional granitoid magmatism. The latest ore-forming event occurred in the Early Permian (290–280 Ma) and affected exclusively in Precambrian structures of the Baikal-Muya foldbelt (BMB). It was synchronous with the development of intraplate alkaline and subalkaline magmatism in the region.

Comparison of the Sr, Nd, and Pb isotopic composition of the ores and rocks, including magmatic rocks coeval with the gold mineralization, indicates that the Precambrian continental crust was the dominant source of mineral-forming components for the hydrothermal systems of the gold deposits.

The saturated and aromatic fractions in crude oils and source rocks in the Chepaizi area were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results show that triaromatic steroid series are detected in all investigated oils and four sets of source rocks from the Chepaizi area. Based on the considerable differences in their compositional features, three families of crude oils are distinguished. Family I crude oils show the highest ratio of C₂₆/C₂₈ 20S TAS and abundant triaromatic dinosteroids, which are sourced from Qingshuihe Formation of Lower Cretaceous. Oil Family II has the lowest C₂₆/C₂₈ 20S TAS, C₂₇/C₂₈ 20R TAS and C₂₆ + C₂₇/C₂₈ TAS ratios and highest 4-MTSI ratio, considering to be related to Jurassic source rocks. Oil Family III displays very similar distribution characteristics of C₂₆–C₂₈ triaromatic steroids and C₂₇–C₂₉ methyltriaromatic steroids to Permian source rocks, and can be subdivided into two subtypes based on C₂₆/C₂₈ 20S TAS, C₂₇/C₂₈ 20R TAS and C₂₆ + C₂₇/C₂₈ TAS ratios, both of these two subtypes are mainly originated from Permian Fengcheng Formation source rocks due to the lack of triaromatic dinosteriods, while Family III-1 possibly mixed with a minor contribution from Wuerhe Formation because of the coexistence of <i>n</i>-alkanes with 25-norhopanes.
