The D10 showing is located in the McBride River area, approximately 60 kilometres southeast of the town of Dease Lake (bearing 120), approximately 2.8 kilometres south of the D8 showing (MINFILE 104I 101).

A grab sample from a quartz-chalcopyrite-malachite vein was obtained by the BCGS field team in 2015 (Sample # 15BvS-25-11).

Quartz and quartz-carbonate veins with chalcopyrite, bornite, galena, sphalerite and/or arsenopyrite locally contain high gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc values at the D1, D4 and D8 showings, 2 to 4 kilometres north of D10 (MINFILES 104I 093, 100, 101). A subvertical northwest-striking quartz-calcite vein at the D1 showing returned 116 g/t Au and 590 g/t Ag over 25 cm (Yeager and Ikona, 1982; 1985).
