The Verna North occurrence is located at an elevation of approximately 1980 metres on an isolated peak, east of Moosevale Creek and in the western headwaters of Menard Creek.

The area is underlain by Upper Triassic Savage Mountain Formation (Takla Group) volcanics. These are bounded by the Moose Valley fault to the west and by the north-northwest–trending Ingenika fault to the east. A Lower Jurassic quartz monzodiorite stock lies just to the north of the occurrence area.

Locally, a chlorite-altered basalt hosts chalcopyrite and malachite associated with a small structure(?).

Work History

In 2015, High Power Exploration conducted property wide, broadly spaced geochemical sampling and reconnaissance-style mapping and prospecting on key target areas on their large Menard property.

In 2021, Wedgemount Resources Corp. completed a program of geochemical (rock and soil) sampling and spectral analysis on the area as the regionally extensive Cookie property. A grab sample (D704118) from the occurrence assayed 1.20 per cent copper and 2.9 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 40029).
