The B and R No. 3 showing is 2.5 kilometres west-northwest of the summit of Mount Thynne and 23 kilometres northwest of Tulameen. The Dawn showing (092HNE068) is 800 metres to the northeast.

The occurrence is hosted in a northward trending, steeply dipping sequence of andesitic flows, argillites, tuffs and limestone of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group, immediately southwest of a diorite stock of Late Triassic to Early Jurassic age.

Disseminated pyrite and chalcopyrite occur in dark green, malachite-stained lava (andesite), near the contact with a northeast trending, steeply east-dipping limestone bed. A grab sample assayed 0.17 gram per tonne gold, 6.9 grams per tonne silver and 0.30 per cent copper (J.P. Elwell, 1964, page 12, sample 6144).

Work History

In 1964, Bardale Mining and Development Co. Ltd. completed a program of prospecting, rock sampling and a 52.8 line-kilometre ground magnetic survey on the area as the B and R and Dawn claims.

During 2006 through 2014, Bryan and Egil Livgard completed programs of prospecting, geochemical (silt, soil and rock) sampling and biogeochemical sampling on the area as the George property.

During 2014 through 2018, Tech-X Resources Ltd. completed programs of geological mapping, geochemical (rock, silt and soil) sampling, 29.5 line-kilometres of induced polarization surveys and a 548.9 line-kilometre airborne magnetic survey and on the area as the Thinne and LC claims of the Lawless Creek property. See the Dawn (MINFILE 092HNE068) occurrence for a summary of results of this work.
