The Thrust occurrence is located south of End Lake and the Osilinka River, about 41 kilometres north of the community of Germansen Landing.

At the showing, patchy sphalerite and blebs of chalcopyrite occur in recrystallized dolostone (Echo Lake Group) in the middle of the brecciated zone of the End Lake thrust fault. The thrust places rocks of the Cambrian to Ordovician Razorback Group on top of dolomite breccias of the Ordovician to Lower Devonian Echo Lake Group.
