The Victim Silver occurrence is located 2.0 kilometres west of the north end of Slocan Lake and 2.5 kilometres southwest of the town of Hills. Pegmatitic quartz veins carrying pyrite, galena and sphalerite cut Slocan Group black, pyritic phyllite interlayered with black pyritic sandstone and minor limestone (Assessment Report 9175). Diamond-drill hole 80-SH-04 intersected pyrite and pyrrhotite in phyllite and a felsic dike which assayed less than 1 gram per tonne silver. Slocan Group rocks are Triassic in age and are intruded by the Wragge Creek stock which is composed of hornblende biotite quartz monzonite and minor quartz diorite and granodiorite. A potassium-argon date on biotite yielded an age of 74 million years (GSC Open File 432).

In 1970 (Assessment report 2393), Argem Explorations Limited prepared 1662 metres of line and collected 191 soil geochemical samples which were analysed for zinc and molybdenum. In 1971 (Assessment Report 3004), Argem Explorations Limited prepared an additional 6344 metres of line, collected 178 soil samples and again analysed them for zinc and molybdenum. In 1980 (Assessment Report 8042), Cyprus Anvil Mining Corporation optioned the property and cut 9.2 kilometres of baseline and crossline and collected 1780 soil samples which were analysed for molybdenum, copper, lead, zinc and silver. In 1981 (Assessment Report 9175), Cyprus Anvil completed some trenching and four diamond-drill holes totalling 1042 metres. Molybdenite was intersected at the Victim Molybdenite #1 occurrence (082KSW062) as well as at the Victim Molybdenite #2 occurrence (082KSW188) another two kilometres to the west, and a vein containing galena and sphalerite was intersected at the Victim Silver occurrence. In 1983 (Assessment Report 11646), Shannon Creek Resources Limited collected 168 soil samples which were analysed for gold, silver, lead, zinc and copper. In 1986 (Assessment Report 14947), Silvera Resources Incorporated analysed 226 of the Cyprus Anvil soil geochemical samples for gold.
