The Acacia North occurrence is located on the northeast side of a ridge separating Laluwissen and McGillivray creeks, at an elevation of approximately 1400 metres.
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, pyritic deposits occur over a large area to the east of intrusive porphyry dikes.
Two outcrop samples assayed 0.095 and 0.15 per cent copper (Property File - D.C. Malcolm [1972-07-31]: Report on Acacia Mineral Development).
