The Rodeo occurrence is located at the headwaters of Corrigan Creek, approximately 3.3 kilometres southeast of the former producing WWW mine (MINFILE 092F 141).
Mafic volcanics of the Upper Triassic Karmutsen Formation and basalt of the Lower Jurassic Bonanza Group are intruded by diorite to quartz diorite (Corrigan Creek Pluton) of the Jurassic Island Plutonic Suite. The Karmutsen volcanics are primarily basalts which exhibit lower greenschist metamorphism and are cut by feldspar porphyry dikes.
Mineralization occurs as fine-grained disseminations hosted in the intrusives and in vuggy quartz and quartz-carbonate veins. Mineralization consists of pyrite, chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite, molybdenite, bornite and covellite.
Prospecting and underground work on the Golden Slipper and Golden Rule claims were carried out in 1899 and 1900. From 2007 to 2009, Auracle Geospatial Science Inc. completed a program of spectral analysis and sample analysis
A sample of quartz diorite adjacent to a vein on the Andy claim assayed 4.10 per cent copper, 41.1 grams per tonne silver, 1.7 grams per tonne gold, 0.123 per cent zinc and 0.0866 per cent molybdenum. In this sample the pyrite replaces hornblende (Assessment Report 14930). An old adit occurs to the south of these showings. A typical grab sample from a quartz vein on the Rodeo claim assayed 1.1 grams per tonne gold, 5.5 grams per tonne silver, 0.026 per cent copper and 0.224 per cent zinc (Assessment Report 17419).
