The RIP occurrence is located north west of a small lake in the north eastern head waters of the Anstey River, approximately 14 kilometres east of the northern end of Shuswap Lake.

The area lies within the Proterozoic to Lower Paleozoic Monashee Complex, part of the Shuswap Metamorphic Complex, along the western margin of the Frenchman Cap Dome. The core of the dome rocks are probable Aphebian paragneiss and orthogneiss. Lying unconformably on the dome are a succession of metasedimentary quartzites and pelites and concordant nepheline syenite gneisses. Carbonatites occur within a calc-silicate unit.

Locally, molybdenite occurs disseminated in nepheline and pegmatite dikes, which intrude biotite schists and gneisses. Limonite staining is associated with pyrite and pyrrhotite. Two types of carbonatites occur within a calc-silicate unit.

In 2010, rock sampling of a carbonatite unit yielded up to 0.023 per cent niobium, 0.015 per cent yttrium and 0.162 per cent total rare earth elements (Sample 10-PR-046; Assessment Report 31983). Another rock sample (71730), taken approximately 1 kilometre to the north, yielded up to 0.024 per cent niobium, 0.009 per cent yttrium and 0.107 per cent total rare earth elements (Assessment Report 31983).

In 2010, the area was prospected and sampled by Zimtu Capital Corporation. In 2011 and 2012, International Bethlehem Mining prospected the area immediately east as the Myoff South claim. These programs were centered on exploration for rare earth elements associated with the carbonatite unit.
