The Hemrick Mines placer showing occurs on the Lillooet River at the mouth of Billygoat Creek, immediately to the south of Little Lillooet Lake. Placer gold, reportedly with platinum group metals, occurs within unconsolidated gravels of the Lillooet River. Although trenching and sampling of the gravels has been carried out, no record exists of grade or possible production.
