Copper mineralization is exposed for 250 metres along Highway 101, on the east side of Ruby Lake of the Sechelt Peninsula.
The Bacon showing is hosted in a roof pendant of mafic flows, pyroclastics, chert and epidote skarn of the Upper Triassic Karmutsen Formation (Vancouver Group) engulfed in diorite and quartz diorite of Upper Jurassic age within the Jurassic to Tertiary Coast Plutonic Complex. Bedding strikes 040 degrees and dips 75 degrees northwest.
Pyrite, pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite occur as fracture-infillings along conjugate joints and as blebs in the roof pendant rocks. Several grab samples assayed between 0.21 and 0.55 per cent copper (Assessment Report 11333, page 2). A shear zone in the vicinity is reported to contain pyrite and molybdenite.
