The Echo II showing is located on the north side of Bonneau Creek, about 40 kilometres east-southeast of Vernon.
The claims were staked in 1982 and work in 1983, 1984 and 1987 identified geochemically anomalous areas and located zones of altered and silicified outcrop. In 1988, a silicified and pyritic outcrop was discovered during geological mapping, prospecting and geophysics.
The area is underlain by metamorphic rocks of the Proterozoic to Paleozoic Kootenay Assemblage. Locally, these comprise primarily schistose rock but include phyllite, amphibolite and limestone.
A 40 centimetre wide zone of silicified mica schist occurs within an 18 metre wide outcrop of fractured clay-rich and limonitic schist.
A sample taken from this zone assayed 1.3 grams per tonne silver and 1.08 grams per tonne gold (Sample LES-115, Assessement Report 16413). Other samples assayed between 0.001 and 0.009 gram per tonne gold (Assessement Report 16413).
