The Vamp (Vampire) occurrence is located on the north side of the Chilcotin River, approximately 8 kilometres northwest of Chezacut.

The area is underlain by rhyolite and felsic volcanic rocks of the Eocene Ootsa Lake Group.

Locally, an intermediate volcanic is propylitically-altered (epidote-carbonate) over an area of at least 120 metres. Mineralization consists of disseminated chalcopyrite and secondary malachite. In 2008, a select grab sample (V08R-01) assayed 0.381 per cent copper (Assessment Report 30753).

In 2008 and 2009, the area was prospected as the Vamp 1-4 claims.
