The 1324 Creek occurrence is located on a steep ridge and gully northeast of Consort Creek, approximately 1.2 kilometres north of Stewart Lake.
The area is underlain by pillow basalts, basalt flows and/or breccias and undivided basalt and andesite flows of the Triassic Karmutsen Formation (Vancouver Group).
Locally, sulphide mineralization is related to cross-cutting quartz veins and as sulphide-rich altered volcanic rocks associated with concordant alteration zones. Arsenopyrite and stibnite are also associated with the sulphides.
In 1991, a channel sample (26332) assayed 0.5 per cent copper and 88 grams per tonne silver over a width of 1 metre (Assessment Report 20917).
