The Cee prospect lies on the south side of the Similkameen valley, 2 kilometres east of Basely Creek and 9.5 kilometres east of Princeton.

This area on the north flank of the Darcy Mountains is primarily underlain by intrusive rocks of the Early Jurassic Bromley batholith, with minor volcanics and sediments of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group.

Veinlets and disseminations of chalcopyrite occur in coarse- grained granite and granodiorite near the contact with dyke-like masses of andesite and andesite porphyry of the Nicola Group. The chalcopyrite is sometimes localized along shear zones. Mineralized granite exhibits orthoclase and sericite alteration. Pyrite, bornite and chalcocite are present in minor amounts. Chalcopyrite is replaced by malachite or goethite in a few instances.

Trenching and diamond drilling up to 1976 indicates this copper mineralization occurs intermittently in an area 600 metres long and 400 metres wide.
