The Hydrothermal showing is located in the center 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 in a quartz-healed breccia as very-fine–grained, densely disseminated pyrite patches.

In 2011, MatNic Resources Inc. completed airborne VTEM and magnetometer geophysical surveys, prospecting and rock, silt and soil sampling. Highlights include chip sample 545601, which assayed 2.6 grams per tonne gold and 3.1 grams per tonne silver over 0.4 metre (Assessment Report 32490).

For full property history and regional geology, see the main Annis showing (MINFILE 082LNW021).
