The Doug occurrence is located on an unnamed tributary if Everett Creek, approximately 18 kilometres southwest of the community of Dome Creek.

The area is underlain by fossiliferous light grey limestone of the Lower Cambrian Mural Formation, Gog Group.

Mineralization consisting of chalcopyrite and chalcocite with lesser amounts of cuprite, azurite and malachite occurs over an area of about one kilometre by 3 kilometres in low temperature quartz veins. The mineralization is found in patches in the quartz up to a few centimetres in width and 10 centimetres in length. Ankerite is also present.

In 1976, mineralized quartz float was found in a tributary of Everett Creek and was traced back to mineralized bedrock the following year. A program of hand trenching and a small electromagnetic survey was completed the same year.

In 1977, samples from trench no.1 returned up to 24.8 per cent copper and 0.57 per cent copper over 7 metres (Assessment Report 6938).
