The Raven (Cisco 5 Au) occurrence is located north east of Red Creek, approximately 8.5 kilometres north west of the creeks’ junction with the Sustut River.

Regionally, the area lies within a large fault block of Lower Jurassic Telkwa Formation (Hazelton Group) volcanics. Within the fault block, the strata dips 30 degrees to the southwest. Small, Early Jurassic leucocratic porphyry plugs intrude the volcanics.

Locally, a gossanous dacite hosts up to 10 per cent disseminated pyrite with occasional pyrite stringers, quartz veinlets and magnetite bands.

In 1997, two grab samples (ZR-130 and -132) assayed 2.09 and 1.02 grams per tonne gold with 0.05 and 0.09 per cent copper, respectively (McCrea, J.A. (2011-03-07): Technical Report on the Day Property).

The area has been explored in conjunction with the nearby Day (MINIFLE 094D 065) occurrence and a full exploration and work history of the area can be found there.
