The WMM showing is located in the headwaters of Sixteen Mile Creek, about 15 kilometres north of Whistler. The WMM claims are owned by M.P. Warshawski. The WMM claims were first staked in 1972 by Warshawski and Manifold upon the discovery of a gold occurrence. In 1973, Bow River Resources carried out a soil survey but no anomalies were outlined. In 1988, Corona Corp. extended trenching and conducted an electromagnetic survey. Overseas Platinum Corp. optioned the property in 1989 and carried out limited electromagnetic and induced polarization surveys.

The region in which the WMM showing occurs is underlain by a roof pendant of Lower Cretaceous Gambier Group volcanic and sedimentary rocks within dominantly quartz diorite of the Jurassic to Cretaceous Coast Plutonic Complex.

The showing itself is hosted by massive, fine grained andesite and basalt flows with minor black argillite and narrow basalt lenses. The argillite strikes 345 degrees and dips steeply. Hornblende diorite comprises the Coast Plutonic Complex at the showing.

The WMM showing consists of two parallel, silicified, shear zones exposed in a east-west direction for 18 metres. Gold-pyrite mineralization occurs within silicified and oxidized zones in the basalt which had been previously strongly chloritized. A narrow (less than 1 metre wide) shear zone, trending 075 degrees, appears to have been the main control on the emplacement of the mineralization and attendant wallrock alteration. A channel sample taken over 90 centimetres assayed 5.99 grams per tonne gold (Assessment Report 18427). Rock samples taken in 1992 failed to yield anomalous precious metal values (Assessment Report 22553).
