The Barclay showing, 2.2 kilometres by steep road southeast of Camborne, is part of a system of mineralized veins along the south side of Pool Creek. See the Spider mine (082KNW045) for details.

The area is underlain by southeasterly striking, steeply dipping volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Lower Paleozoic Lardeau Group. Sedimentary rocks of the Broadview Formation include medium grey to greenish quartzites, greywackes, carbonaceous phyllites and quartz sericite schist. The volcanic rocks of the Jowett Formation comprise massive fragmental lenses and lava flows, some chlorite schist and a few thin beds of banded iron formation. In the fragmental units, extreme elongation of the clasts, caused by synkinematic metamorphism, has imparted a crude secondary layering subparallel to the primary stratification.

The Barclay vein is hosted by altered greenstone and exposed at the east end of a road cut. The vein consists of galena sparingly disseminated in quartz. Diamond drill programs by Sunshine Lardeau Mines, in 1954 and 1956, failed to locate any extension of this zone. There is no record of ore production from this zone.

K-2 Resources Inc. drilled in the area in 1986.
