A replacement shoot of ore is reported to occur on the Manitoba claim (Richardson, 1957 (Property File). As part of the Highland group (see 082FNE015), Cominco explored the Manitoba by drilling four holes in 1956.

J.T. Fyles shows the location of the mineralized vein to be in limestone of the Mississippian to Lower Permian Milford Group (Bulletin 53, Figure 3). The characteristics of the mineralization are not reported and assumed to be silver-lead-zinc ore.
