The Red Head Jerry occurrence is located southwest of Sherk Lake. The area was previously explored in conjunction with the Sherk Lake rhodonite (MINFILE 092C 026) occurrence.
The area is underlain by Upper Devonian McLaughlin Ridge Formation (Sicker Group) mafic volcanics and Mississippian to Pennsylvanian Fourth Lake Formation (Buttle Lake Group) ribbon cherts and crinoidal limestone. A major anticline occurs to the east and the area is highly faulted.
Locally, intrusives host a number of small, 2 to 6 square metres, zones of semi- to massive sulphide mineralization and quartz veins. Sulphide mineralization consists of primarily chalcopyrite and pyrite mineralization, while gold has been reported in the quartz veins.
In 2009, rock chip samples yielded values up to 1.0 gram per tonne gold, 24.4 grams per tonne silver and 1.03 per cent copper (Assessment Report 31211).
In 2013, rock chip samples taken from four locations over a 242 metre strike length yielded values ranging from 0.735 to 1.820 per cent copper, 0.012 to 0.154 per cent zinc and 4.4 to 94.5 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 34381).
During 2008 through 2013, S. Phillips completed programs of prospecting and geochemical sampling on the area as the Red Head Jerry claims.
