The Wiz 47 occurrence is located at an elevation of approximately 1300 metres on an east-facing slope, north of Broom Creek and west of Guichon Creek.

The area is underlain primarily by the Guichon variety of the Highland Valley phase of the Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic Guichon Creek Batholith.

Locally, disseminated chalcopyrite, bornite and chalcocite mineralization occurs in sericitic alteration zones in a granodiorite near the contact with a quartz monzonite phase.
