The Linda Lou occurrence is located 4.5 kilometres east of Cawston, British Columbia between Blind and Cawston creeks.

The Linda Lou occurrence was first staked and explored by Checkmate Resources in 1983. Little Bear Resources Ltd. conducted further exploration in 1984, and under option to Gold-Metal Resources Ltd. and Boise Creek Resources in 1985. In 1989, additional exploration was conducted by Little Bear Resources Ltd.

The Linda Lou occurrence is located within metasediments and metavolcanics of the Carboniferous to Permian Kobau Group. Chloritic schist, chloritic mica schist, quartzite and limestone comprise lithologies of the Kobau Group. Structurally, the metasediments appear to follow a broad synclinal fold with its axis striking north-northwest and dipping moderately north. To the immediate north of the occurrence lies Middle Jurassic diorite and dioritic feldspar porphyry that has been subsequently intruded by granodiorite of the Jurassic Oliver plutonic complex. Younger aplite and lamprophyre dikes are found crosscutting all older rock units. Lenses of hornblende gabbro locally occur in Kobau lithologies. A northeast trending, regional-scale fault or shear appears to cut across the southern portion of the property.

A number of quartz veins vary from 2 to 100 centimetres width. The veins locally form a quartz stockwork. Most veins are less than 30 centimetres wide and pinch out over 3 to 4 metre intervals. These veins occur along one of two orientations; one set following bedding and the other crosscutting bedding up to 60 degrees.

Vein mineralization consists of variable amounts of pyrite, galena and chalcopyrite. Several of these veins were sampled in 1985 with the following results. Sample GM-11 was sampled across a 20-centimetre wide quartz vein striking 277 degrees and dipping vertical. The sample contained minor disseminated pyrite, galena and chalcopyrite and yielded 0.01 gram per tonne gold and 0.2 gram per tonne silver (Assessment Report 13894). Sample GM-2 yielded 0.6 gram per tonne gold and 2.2 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 13894). The sample was taken across a 30-centimetre quartz vein, striking 296 degrees and dipping vertical.

Skarn mineralization has also been observed. Sample GM-19 yielded 0.29 gram per tonne gold and 0.2 gram per tonne silver (Assessment Report 13894).
