The Senorita occurrence is located on Mobbs Creek at 1000 metres elevation above sea level, in the Slocan Mining Division.
Regionally, the area lies within the Selkirk Mountains of southeastern British Columbia. The occurrence is within the Kootenay Arc, a curving belt of highly deformed metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks which includes the Upper Proterozoic Horsethief Creek Group, the Upper Proterozoic to Lower Cambrian Hamill Group, the Lower Cambrian Badshot Formation, and the Paleozoic Lardeau and Milford groups. The volcano-sedimentary sequence is intruded by numerous Paleozoic to Mesozoic granitoid plutons.
The Lardeau River area of the Selkirk Mountains is mainly underlain by massive pillow lavas, volcanic breccia and green phyllitic rocks of the Index Formation and by grey-green mica schist of the Broadview Formation. Grey phyllitic rocks and marble of the Milford Group are exposed near the edges of the Mesozoic Mobbs Creek, Rapid Creek and Poplar Creek stocks. All rocks have undergone regional metamorphism to middle or upper greenschist facies. Rocks of the Milford Group have also been affected by thermal metamorphism (Geological Survey of Canada Bulletin 193).
The occurrence consists of a 30 to 90 centimetre wide quartz vein hosted in a narrow shear. The quartz is mineralized with massive galena and tetrahedrite. No geological description of the occurrence could be located but it is probably hosted within grey phyllite of the Broadview Formation of the Paleozoic Lardeau Group close to the Mobbs fault (Geological Survey of Canada Map 1277A).
