The Mob 6 showing is exposed adjacent to a road on the northwest corner of the southern Hornet Lake (Deadman Lake), 7.5 kilometres southwest of Missezula Lake.

A trench in gossanous granite and quartz monzonite of the Late Triassic to Early Jurassic Allison Lake pluton reveals fine-grained disseminated pyrite and chalcopyrite.

Scattered outcrops of disseminated chalcopyrite in fine-grained diorite occur 280 to 400 metres west and southwest of the trench.

E. Sleeman and Bronson Mines Ltd. conducted soil, magnetometer and geological surveys over the showing in 1973 and 1974.
