The CANE 7 showing is located on the west side of the Granby River, approximately 5.5 kilometres north of Bluejoint Mountain.
The area is underlain by gneiss of the Proterozoic Monashee Complex. Syenite of the Eocene Coryell Intrusions outcrops to the southwest. Quartz monzonite of unknown origin is found near the showing.
The CANE 7 showing is a uranium occurrence in a granite pegmatite. The pegmatite is poorly exposed, but where visible it contains large, 8 to 10 centimetre, smoky-coloured, anhedral quartz crystals. A maximum scintillometer reading of 6000 counts- per-second was obtained on the pegmatite, and the surrounding area contained numerous readings of greater than 1000 counts-per-second (Assessment Report 8215). Analysis of the pegmatite indicated a uranium content of 0.0741 per cent (Assessment Report 8215).
In 1978-79, the area was evaluated by a number of uranium exploration programs funded by E & B Explorations Ltd. The claims were staked in 1978 by Kelvin Energy Ltd. Can-Lake Explorations Ltd. carried out stream sediment sampling and geological mapping that summer. Follow-up detailed sampling of stream sediment anomalies was done by Barringer Magenta Ltd. Later in 1978, Scintrex Ltd. was contracted to carry out an airborne radiometric, magnetic and electromagnetic survey over the property. Conductive and radiometric anomalies were identified. This was followed by an aerial photograph interpretation of the central part of the property by Bayrock Surficial Geology Ltd. Lineaments along the Kettle River and Rendell Creek valleys were interpreted as a graben structure.
In 1979, Kelvin Energy Ltd. carried out detailed property work on anomalous areas identified by the 1978 programs. The CANE 7 pegmatite was discovered during a follow-up program of detailed soil sampling, geological mapping, and radiometric prospecting. No work is recorded on the CANE 7 showing after the uranium moratorium was declared in 1980.
