The Elmo showing is hosted in rocks of the Lower Jurassic Telkwa Formation, Hazelton Group. A small Eocene stock of the Coast Plutonic Complex intrudes the strata to the immediate southwest of the area. Extensive masses of quartz diorite of the Middle Jurassic Trapper Plutonic Suite intrude to the north, west and south.
It is situated on the west edge of the New Moon property approximately 150 metres outside the properties claim boundaries. The zone consists of numerous mafic and felsic dike phases which crosscut bedded andesitic volcaniclastics, basalt and pyritic argillite. These units become hornfelsed and potassium-metasomatized to the north. Zones of extensive silica, chlorite and pyrite alteration occur over an area of at least 300 by 100 metres. The hornfelsed and metasomatized zones as well as proximal granite dikes suggest that the alteration and mineralization is of skarn origin related to a nearby but unidentified intrusion. Thirty-six (36) grab samples were collected from the Elmo showing in 2007 with only one sample showing anomalous base metal signatures. Massive pyrite sample 07KHP059 hosted in chloritic andesite yielded 0.26 per cent copper, 0.62 per cent lead and 0.23 per cent zinc (Assessment Report 29585). The Elmo showing was discovered in 2007 during reconnaissance work around the Shadow showing.
The Bumblebee showing is located about 375 metres southwest of the Elmo showing on the opposite side of the river which runs through the Elmo showing. It is an 800 by 500 metre area characterized by spotty localized copper-bearing outcrops and boulders. Twenty-six (26) grab samples were taken in the Bumblebee area in 2007. The only element shown to be anomalous in all of the samples was copper, with values as high as 3.6 per cent (07ARP214) from an epidote-magnetite-chalcopyrite bearing poddy vein (Assessment Report 29585).
