The Wildcat 7 showing is located near Larch Hills Creek, approximately 15 kilometres north east of Salmon Arm. The claim was staked in 2001 by R. Szalanski and B. Dollack to cover previously unknown gold- enriched quartz-pyrite breccia veins and stockwork zones exposed by recent logging activity.

The area is underlain by highly deformed and metamorphosed rocks of the Proterozoic Hunters Range and Silver Creek assemblages. Micaceous quartzo feldspathic gneiss, marble and ampbibolite of the Hunters Range Assemblage predominate.

Locally, auriferous late-stage (Cretaceous or Tertiary) multi-episodic quartz-pyrite breccia veins and stockwork occur as small resistant knobs and or recessive areas associated with strong clay and ankeritic alteration. The best gold and silver grades are associated with semi-chalcedonic to vitreous white quartz, stained with moderate, 2 to 6 per cent, very fine grained to microscopic black to brown pyrite.

In 2001, selective samples from three areas returned up to 540 parts per billion gold, 46.4 grams per tonne silver with associated moderately anomalous arsenic and antimony (Assessment Report 26890).
