The Cobo showing is located 3 kilometres northwest of Bridesville, British Columbia, at about 1387 metres elevation. The Anarchist Chrome occurrence (082ESW024) is located 2.25 kilometres to the south.
The showing is hosted by a sequence of metasediments and metavolcanics of the Permian to Carboniferous Anarchist Group. Greenstone, quartzite, greywacke, limestone, serpentinite and locally paragneiss comprise the Anarchist Group. These have been intruded by granodiorite, quartz diorite, granite, quartz monzonite, monzonite and syenite of the Middle Jurassic Nelson intrusions.
The occurrence is reported to be underlain by paragneiss, greenstone and gabbro of the Anarchist Group. These lithologies have a general northwest strike with a dip of 40 to 70 degrees to the northeast. Copper and nickel were explored for in these metaplutonic and metavolcanic rocks. Details of the mineralogy were not reported.
The Cobo occurrence was staked and owned by E. Mueller in 1970 and 1971. During this period, geochemical soil sampling and a self potential survey were conducted on the property.
Because of its proximity to the Anarchist Chrome occurrence, the early development and exploration history is given here. In the early 1950s, two chromium occurrences were located and explored in the Bridesville area; the Anarchist Chrome and the Chrome Bell properties. The chromite showings were originally staked in 1956 by the Anarchist Chrome Company Ltd. A total of 74 claims were staked on the south side of a 1518 metre peak, 2.5 kilometres west-southwest of Bridesville. Initial work, between 1956 and 1958, consisted of some stripping, ground magnetometer surveying and diamond drilling but the results were not published. A few hundred tonnes of ore were sorted for shipment. The AA anomaly was estimated to contain reserves of 99,790 tonnes (Western Canada Mining News, September 1957). The claims were allowed to lapse and the ground was restaked by Pacific Chrome Alloys Ltd. in 1961, at which time more magnetometer surveys and diamond drilling were done. Again the claims were allowed to lapse. Later the area was covered by claims staked in association with exploration of the Old Nick (082ESW055) nickel prospect, but no work was done on the chromite showings.
During 2008 through 2012, Grizzly Discoveries Inc. completed programs of geochemical (rock, stream sediment and soil) sampling, geological mapping and airborne and ground geophysical surveys on the Dayton-Sidley area of the Greenwood Property.
