The Lis 6 (South) occurrence is located south of Hughes Creek, southwest of its confluence with Seeman Creek and at an elevation of approximately 1800 metres.
Regionally, the area is located near the southern end of the Kootenay Arc, a generally north-trending, west-dipping arcuate zone of metavolcanics and metasediments. The area is underlain by successively younger strata from east to west, ranging from the middle Proterozoic (Helikian) Purcell Supergroup in the east (by Kootenay Lake), through the late Proterozoic (Hadrynian) Windermere Supergroup and late Proterozoic (Hadrynian) lower Cambrian strata of the Hamill Group (Badshot and Mohican formations) and lower Cambrian and younger Lardeau Group to the west. All successions are cut by middle to late Mesozoic intrusive rocks.
Locally, highly sheared mafic metavolcanics host a quartz vein, up to 2.5 metres wide, mineralized with chalcopyrite, pyrite and pyrrhotite.
In 1987, chip samples yielded up to 0.24 gram per tonne gold (Property File - Dutch Creek Resources [1987-10-29]: Prospectus Report on the Wisconsin Property). Only gold values were reported.
The occurrence was discovered in 1984. In 1986, Hyperion Industries and Esperanza Explorations completed a program of resistivity and induced polarizations surveys on the area.
