The Daisy occurrence is located along Mineral Creek, a tributary of Britannia Creek, approximately 2.2 kilometres northwest of the past producing Britannia (MINFILE 092GNW003) mine.
The Britannia district is underlain by a roof pendant of mid-Mesozoic volcanic and sedimentary rocks, within the Cenozoic to Mesozoic Coast Plutonic Complex. A broad, steeply south-dipping zone of complex shear deformation and metamorphism called the Britannia shear zone crosses the pendant in a northwest direction. The Indian River shear zone, a narrow zone of foliated rocks, is sub-parallel to the Britannia shear zone and transects the northeast part of the Britannia pendant. The deformed rocks are cut by dacite dikes and several major sets of faults. The Britannia roof pendant is one of many northwest trending bodies within and in part metamorphosed by the Coast Plutonic Complex. The pendant is composed of fresh to weakly metamorphosed rocks with sharp contacts against plutonic rocks, and belongs to the Lower Cretaceous Gambier Group. The Coast plutonic rocks consist of older, commonly foliated bodies ranging from diorite to granodiorite and younger quartz diorite to quartz monzonite intrusions (Squamish pluton). The plutonic rocks have produced contact metamorphic aureoles up to 100 metres wide in the Britannia pendant.
Locally, two zones mineralized with chalcopyrite have been outlined with dimensions of 60 metres long by 6 metres wide and 54 metres high. The zones are located stratigraphically above the main Britannia (MINFILE 092GNW003) mine ore zones and are reported to bottom out above the 2700 level of the past-producing mine. An indicated resource of 54,150 tonnes averaging 1.1 per cent copper is reported (Property File - Consolidated Paymaster Resources Ltd. [1983-07-01]: Exploration Potential - Copper Beach Estates, Ltd., Britannia Beach, B.C.).
The area has been historically explored in conjunction with the nearby past-producing Britannia (MINFILE 092GNW003) mine.
