The Log showing is located 1500 metres north of Frederick siding of the Canadian National Railway, about 23 kilometres west of Kamloops. The area is underlain by fine grained and slightly porphyritic andesite of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group near the contact with Cherry Creek unit monzonite of the Late Triassic-Early Jurassic Iron Mask batholith.

Chalcopyrite, bornite and pyrrhotite occur as disseminations in somewhat brecciated andesite.

In 1977, British Newfoundland Exploration Limited performed work consisting of soil sampling (244), ground magnetometer survey (8 kilometres) and geological mapping.
