The Sunlite travertine deposit is located in an unnamed creek bottom 750 metres northeast of the north end of Slocan Lake.

Travertine deposits are actively precipitating from warm springs in several areas in the area east of the village of Hills. Good exposures are available at several waterfalls in the creek. Little information is available on the deposit, although George Addie (1975) describes it as being more "homogeneous" than the Starlite deposits on Arthur Creek (082KSW074), two kilometres to the north.

The Sunlite and Starlite deposits are part of a group of several travertine deposits in the area between Slocan Lake and Kaslo. Better exposed examples are in highway cuts at Ainsworth Hot Springs and on the highway a few kilometres west of Kaslo. According to D. Hora the deposits have little economic potential (D. Hora, personal communication, 1995).

An estimated 1,100,000 tonnes of travertine is reported (Northcote, 1982).
