The Lucky Jim occurrence is located on the south side of the Adam River, approximately 2.2 kilometres south west of its junction with Compton Creek.

The area is underlain by Upper Triassic Vancouver Group, Karmutsen Formation basalts with minor interbedded limestone which is intruded by Jurassic Island Plutonic Suite. Specogna (Assessment Report 13589) observed no limestone on the property and only intrusive dikes (of presumed Island Plutonic Suite association).

Locally, at the contact, a hornblende-calcite breccia contains unspecified skarn minerals and disseminated pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite and pyrite. An assay gave results of 30.86 grams per tonne gold, 61.72 grams per tonne silver and 5.35 per cent copper (Minister of Mines, Annual Report 1916, page 270).

Another area of similar mineralization is reported to occur on a logging road, approximately 900 metres to the west, across the bridge over the Adam River (Assessment Report 13589).

In 1985, Canamin Resources completed a program of prospecting, soil sampling, trenching on the area.
