The LJ occurrence is located on a ridge nose separating the two main arms of Girl Creek, approximately 3.7 kilometres south- southeast of the creek mouth on Carpenter Lake and 6.5 kilometres east of Gold Bridge, B.C.
The area is underlain by sedimentary and volcanic rocks of the Mississippian to Jurassic Bridge River Complex (Group). On the property, the Bridge River Complex is represented by argillite, greenstone and chert, which is locally pyritic.
Locally, mineralization occurs in two shear zones within a pyritized chert and consists of massive, 0.4 metre diameter by 0.10 to 0.15 metre thick, stibnite, arsenopyrite and pyrite veins and fracture fillings. Wallrock alteration along the veins consists of carbonate (commonly ankeritic), mariposite and quartz (listwanite), usually as veinlets.
The first shear zone varies from 0.1 to 0.5 metres in width and has been exposed over 17 metres along strike. It strikes at 330 degrees and dips 10 to 20 degrees southwest. The second shear zone varies from 0.05 to 0.40 metres in width and has been exposed over 17 metres along strike. It strikes at 030 degrees and dips 50 to 60 degrees to the northwest. Chip samples taken across the first shear zone assayed up to 18.8 grams per tonne gold, 2.1 grams per tonne silver and 5.2 per cent antimony, while a grab sample yielded 0.39 per cent antimony, 5.75 grams per tonne gold and 145.0 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 16637). Chip samples from the second shear zone yielded values up to 0.20 per cent antimony, 7.25 grams per tonne gold and 52.0 grams per tonne silver over 1 metre (Assessment Report 16637).
In 1981, a program of airborne magnetic and VLF-EM surveys was completed by Rabbit Oil and Gas Ltd. over the upper Steep Creek area. In 1983 and 1984, Newmont completed programs of geochemical sampling and geological mapping on the area as the Ranger 1-4 claims. During 1985 through 1988, Levon Resources Ltd. completed programs of trenching, rock and soil sampling and airborne geophysical surveys on the area.
During 1985 through 1987, Hoyle Resources completed programs of rock and soil sampling, geological mapping and trenching on the LJ claim. Subsequent prospecting and geological mapping discovered stibnite-arsenopyrite-bearing float with promising gold and silver values. Follow-up pits and trenches revealed two mineralized shear zones that were chip sampled across 0.4 metre widths. In 1987 and 1988 Levon Resources Ltd. flew airborne magnetic and VLF-EM surveys over the area and completed soil surveys in 1988 and 1991.
In 2021, Wild West Gold Corp. conducted rock sampling, MMI soil sampling and a drone magnetic survey over the LJ showing and nearby areas. Two northwest-striking magnetic highs are postulated to be southern extensions of Endurance Gold's Steep Creek and Royal shear zones. (Assessment Report 39702).
