Just south of the Saddle Rock siding of the Canadian Pacific Railway, 7.5 kilometres north-northeast of Yale, a vertically dipping bed of limestone of the Permian to Jurassic Hozameen Complex outcrops on the west bank of the Fraser River. It continues northwestward up the steep river embankment for 250 metres, crossing both the highway and the railway. The bed widens from 15 metres along the Fraser River, to 24 metres at the railway. The limestone is intruded by granite from the west.

The deposit is generally composed of siliceous, bluish-white, fine-grained limestone that is extensively interbedded with quartzite along the river. At the railway, the bed contains a single, 4.6- metre wide band of quartzite. One hundred and fifty metres northwest of the railway, a small quarry exposes pale, brownish-grey limestone with quartz veins and flakes of mica. A sample from the quarry, free of quartz and quartzite, contained 53.44 per cent CaO, 1.21 per cent MgO, 1.51 per cent SiO2, 0.21 per cent Al2O3, 0.32 per cent Fe2O3 and a trace of sulphur (CANMET Report 811, page 181, sample 44).

During 1937 and 1940, a total of 245 tonnes of limestone were quarried by H. Reynolds for agricultural purposes.
