The Mega-Gold anomaly is located north of Vic Creek, approximately 3.5 kilometres east of the Taseko River.

The area is underlain by andesite flow and tuff with overlaying fine clastics of the Upper Cretaceous Kingsvale Group and Middle Jurassic granodiorites. These units have been intruded by Eocene felsic igneous rocks and capped by Miocene to recent basalts.

Locally, a mercury-gold soil anomaly occurs in conjunction with identified induced polarization and aeromagnetic anomalies.

From 1984 to 1985, Brico Mining Limited completed programs of geological mapping, geochemical sampling and aeromagnetic and VLF electromagnetic surveys. From 1991 to 1993, Valerie Gold Resources purchased, staked and optioned the area and completed programs of prospecting, reconnaissance mapping, soil sampling, induced polarization and ground magnetometer surveys and a three-hole diamond drilling program, totalling 691.1 metres. In 1985, panned stream sediment samples assayed up to 9,600 parts per billion gold (Western Canadian Mining Ltd. (1986-12-09): Summary Report on The Taseko Lake Property). In 1993, diamond drilling assayed up to 670 parts per billion gold over 2.0 metres from hole 92MG03 (551039; Assessment Report 22798)
