The property is underlain by Devonian to Mississippian rocks of the Eagle Bay Formation. The rocks consist of phyllites and schists (Unit EBA, Map 56), derived from felsic to intermediate volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks. The strata strikes 070 to 110 degrees and dips 25 to 45 degrees north.

The Vic 1 showing is located 400 metres north of the Beca showing (082M 055). A 10 centimetre pyrite-galena bed, assaying 2.75 per cent lead with minor copper, zinc and silver, occurs within chloritic schist.
