The Roadside occurrence is exposed on a cliff face on the south shoulder of Highway 1, and is part of the Shuswap Silver property, approximately 18 kilometres northeast of Salmon Arm.
Locally, the property is underlain by the Sicamous and Tsalkom Formations and Silver Creek assemblage (Mount Ida Group).
Mineralization occurs as very fine to medium-grained pyrrhotite and pyrite with accessory galena, sphalerite and chalcopyrite in rocks that consist of foliated and sheared quartzites at the east edge of a much broader zone of yellow clay alteration. Additional thin and usually discontinuous seams of massive sulphides appear within the zone of altered hostrocks, often associated with white quartz.
In 2011, MatNic Resources Inc. completed airborne VTEM and magnetometer geophysical surveys, prospecting and rock, silt and soil sampling. Highlights include chip sample 545587, which assayed 1.28 per cent zinc and 2.2 grams per tonne silver over 0.35 metres (Assessment Report 32490).
