The Ace showing is located at the Ace 7 claim post at the west end of a ridge separating Laluwissen and McGillivray creeks, at between 1360 and 1500 metres elevation.

The area is underlain by dioritic rocks of the Triassic Mount Lytton Complex and by volcanics and volcaniclastics of the Middle and Upper Cretaceous Spences Bridge Group.

Locally, limonitic gossans containing pods of fine-grained pyrite are associated with the fault zone between extensively pyritized and brecciated quartz diorite, andesite, cherty tuffs, limestone and feldspar porphyry dikes. The fault strikes 300 degrees and dips nearly vertical at the showing.

Five samples, taken over an area of 60 by 60 metres, averaged 0.42 per cent copper (Property File - D.C. Malcolm [1972-07-31]: Report on Acacia Mineral Development). In 2009, a rock sample (MG-T2-Grab 1) from a trench assayed 0.203 per cent copper (Assessment Report 31066).

Work History

The area was original staked as the Victory claim in 1941.

In 1971, Cuda Capital completed a program of soil sampling and a ground magnetometer survey on the area. In 1972, Acacia Mineral Development Corp. completed a program of geological mapping and geochemical sampling on the area. In 1978, Acadia Resources collected soil samples in the area. In 1983, Ryan Energy Corp. completed a program of airborne geophysical surveys on the area as the Ace 1-8 claims.

During 2006 through 2014, Atocha Resources completed programs of prospecting, geological mapping, geochemical sampling and minor trenching on the area as the McGillivray property.

In 2019, a program of rock sampling and a ground magnetometer survey were completed on the area.

In 2020, Prisma Capital Inc. completed a minor program of rock and soil sampling on the area as the McGill property.
