The Silver Lynx occurrence is located on the south side of Rover Creek and east of Snowwater Creek, at an elevation of approximately 1250 metres and approximately 15 kilometres southwest of Nelson.

The area is underlain by argillite, siltstone and limestone of the Lower Jurassic Ymir Group, which have been intruded by granodiorite of the Middle Jurassic Bonnington pluton. The rocks hosting the prospect are metamorphosed and the protolith is difficult to determine.

The most significant occurrence is the Main or Lower Lynx zone, exposed in a rockcut at 11.3 kilometres on the Rover Creek Forestry Road. Many boulders host semi-massive to massive bands and lenses, disseminations and minor crosscutting veins of fine- to medium-grained pyrrhotite, sphalerite, galena and chalcopyrite. Massive bands of sphalerite and galena range up to 2 centimetres thick. Pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite occur as patches, blebs and disseminations, and occasional wispy bands. Mineralization exposed in the roadcut consists of disseminated to semi-massive pyrrhotite with lesser blebby sphalerite and minor galena and chalcopyrite. Mineralization appears to be stratiform.

The Upper Lynx zone is located 170 metres south and uphill of the Lower Lynx zone. Sporadic mineralization consisting of blebby and veinlet sphalerite and disseminated pyrrhotite is found in moderately altered ash and lapilli felsic tuff. Drilling on the Upper zone identified common thin stringers, fracture fills and disseminations of pyrrhotite-pyrite(-sphalerite>galena-chalcopyrite) commonly hosted by silicified felsic tuff interlayers within argillite and siltstone. The showing is well exposed in an old undocumented working.

A very small occurrence, sometimes called the West Road or Western Lynx zone, consisting of blebby to veinlet sphalerite is found near the 11-kilometre mark on the road. Minor sphalerite is found just below the road in the drainage below the Upper Lynx (Road zone) and in a few locations in the argillite up to 750 metres to the southeast.

Another zone, located approximately 280 metres downstream from the bridge across Snowwater Creek and to the southwest of the other zones, also has an old small working exposing minor pyrrhotite in a garnet-epidote skarn.

In 2001, sampling yielded up to 24.59 per cent zinc, 22.35 per cent lead, 0.21 per cent copper and 556.4 grams per tonne silver from a select grab sample (SC-20R) of roadcut materials located below the main zone; 10.75 per cent zinc, 4.09 per cent lead, 0.48 per cent copper and 117.5 grams per tonne silver from a lone sample (SC-24R) on the main zone; 0.83 per cent zinc, 0.40 per cent lead and 7.0 grams per tonne silver from a lone sample (SC-32R) on the West zone and 2.09 per cent zinc, 0.66 per cent lead, 0.67 per cent copper and 42.0 grams per tonne silver from a grab sample (SC-31R) on the Upper zone (Property File - Cassidy Gold Corp. [2001-01-01]: Roundup 2001 press release - Silver Lynx).

Highlights from the 2004 program include three mineralized horizons in drill hole SL-04-05 that assayed up to 0.88 per cent zinc with highly anomalous values of gold, silver, arsenic, copper and lead (Assessment Report 27536).

In 2009, significant assay results included two sections, between 280 and 295 metres in depth, yeilding 2 metres averaging 2332 parts per million zinc and 4.5 metres averaging 3633 parts per million zinc. These anomalous results may be indicative of the upper sulphide horizon. Other significant intercepts include 3 metres averaging 1288 parts per million zinc and 2 metres averaging 1567 parts per million zinc (Assessment Report 31295).

The Silver Lynx property hosts recently discovered zinc, lead, copper, silver mineralization. Bruce Doyle discovered the property in the summer of 2000 after receiving a Prospectors Assistance Grant from the Ministry of Energy and Mines. He completed a soil geochemical program with results delineating highly anomalous polymetalic values greater than 800 metres long, open on both ends, and up to 300 metres wide with an average width of 125 metres. In November 2000, Cassidy Gold Corp. acquired an option to purchase a 100 per cent interest in the Silver Lynx property, which comprises 20 contiguous mineral claims covering 500 hectares.

In the spring of 2001, Cassidy Gold Corp. did soil sampling and ground magnetic VLF-EM surveying. Transient EM and limited induced polarization surveys were run over parts of the grid. Cassidy Gold followed up in the fall with four diamond drill holes, totalling 642.5 metres, that tested the two inferred mineralized trends. Three of the holes were drilled adjacent to the Lower Lynx showing and the fourth hole tested the northwestern projection of the two mineralized trends. Two of the holes drilled adjacent to the Lower Lynx encountered significant zinc-lead mineralization on a couple of horizons, whereas the fourth hole intersected two weak mineralized trends on strike from both the Lower and Upper Lynx showing.

In 2002, Cassidy Gold Corp. entered into an option agreement with related company Delta Explorations Inc. on the Silver Lynx VMS property, 20 kilometres west of Nelson, whereby Delta might earn a 50 to 60 per cent interest in the property. Delta was still going through its listing process late in 2003 but undertook a program of line cutting and IP surveying.

In 2004, four diamond drill holes, totalling 706.2 metres, tested four IP anomalies on the Silver Lynx volcanogenic massive sulphide target over 800 metres of strike length. Although weak to moderate mineralization was encountered coincident with chargeability highs and resistivity lows, only scattered, low-grade, thin-banded and vein mineralization was discovered.

In 2009, a planned 18-hole drill program was started by Liberty International Mineral Corporation, but the program was terminated early due to financial issues. Only 8 of the 18 holes were completed and of those eight, only four were logged, resulting in 1553 metres of logged core. Two of the four logged cores were sampled and one core was sent for assay. An assessment report was prepared by consulting geologist Brian H. Meyer on behalf of the claim owners, 49er Creek Gold Corporation and Bruce Doyle. The drill program was to focus on testing for two sulphide horizons to the west of the known showings and previously determined very low frequency electromagnetic anomalies. Analysis of the core revealed no apparent source for the very low frequency electromagnetic conductor anomalies and no indication of a lower sulphide horizon.
