The Skitty showing is located on the east side of Crater Mountain, approximately 12.5 kilometres south west of Keremeos.

The area is underlain by the Apex Mountain Complex hosting argillite, chert, mafic volcanics, minor carbonate and ultramafic rocks.

Locally, a vertically dipping, fractured greenstone massive flow unit altered to andesite occurs.

The claims were staked and prospected, in 2007, by Murray Halliday.

Sampling of the showing has returned values up to 1.91 per cent copper, 0.131 gram per tonne gold, 3.2 grams per tonne silver and 233 parts per million zinc (Assessment Report 29928).
