The area is underlain by several interfingered and lensoid bodies of pyroxene porphyry tuff and rhyolite of an unnamed Mesozoic to Paleozoic formation. Sphalerite, galena and chalcopyrite mineral- ization occur in carbonate and conformable quartz veins within shears, oriented 060 degrees and dipping 75 degrees southeast. Northwest of the intense shear zone, the shears are oriented 020 degrees.
A sample of sheared pyroxene porphyry with conformable carbonate lenses assayed 5.8 per cent zinc, 0.18 per cent lead and 0.115 per cent copper. A sample of sheared rhyolite, 80 metres to the north- east, assayed 2.53 per cent zinc, 1.16 per cent lead and 0.093 per cent copper (Assessment Report 12777).
A shaft is reported at this showing (Assessment Report 22764).
