Andesite rocks of the Jurassic Hazelton Group are cut by albite dykes. An east trending, north dipping altered zone contains disseminated bornite, chalcopyrite, galena, chalcocite, and pyrite over a 1 metre width. This zone is likely the one described north of Emma Creek in Geological Survey of Canada Memoir 205.
