Access to the Kava property is 6.6 kilometres by gravel road north from Yellow Lake and Highway 3A via the Sheep Creek (Yellowlake Creek) road and the West Kootenay Powerline service road, about 9 kilometres west of the village of Kaleden.

The Kava showing area is centred on a zone of zeolitized, clinoptilolite-bearing tuffaceous siltstones/sandstones near Mount Laidlaw in the western part of the Penticton Tertiary outlier. The zeolitized beds occur between the Kearns Creek basalt member (below) and the Nimpit Lake trachyte member (above) in the middle part of the Eocene Marron Formation (Penticton Group) in the headwater area of Yellowlake Creek.

The Kava occurrence of clinoptilolite is in tuffaceous beds between major lava units in the middle part of the Marron Formation, similar in geological setting to the Manuel Creek zeolite deposits (082ESW258) about 17 kilometres to the south. The zeolitic beds at the Kava showing are exposed intermittently over a distance of about 300 metres in roadcuts and in a cat trench above the road to the north. The beds are gently easterly and southeasterly dipping, beige-brown tuffaceous siltstones/sandstones containing minor carbonaceous wood and leaf fossils. These beds are apparently overlain by Nimpit Lake tan trachyte lava flows exposed on the ridge north of the claim; the beds are underlain by Kearns Creek pyroxene phyric basalt exposed near the south boundary of the claim.

Prospecting by B.N. Church in 2002 was conducted on behalf of owner/operator F. Niddery.
