The Pin Money showing is located on the ridge between Williams Creek and Conklin Gulch, 2.5 kilometres southeast of Barkerville.
The showing consists of several mineralized quartz veins cutting phyllite, quartzite and limestone of the Upper Proterozoic-Paleozoic Snowshoe Group. Although this area has a history of placer and lode gold exploration dating from the 1860s, the veins comprising the Pin Money showing are documented by a 1983 exploration program covering the Pin Money Reverted Crown grant mineral claim (Assessment Report 11489). The veins are narrow and variably mineralized with pyrite and galena. The best assay values came from a grab sample of a 5 centimetre wide galena-bearing vein in the southern part of the claim, which yielded 161.6 grams per tonne silver and 6.05 per cent lead (Assessment Report 11489, sample 61706).
In 1983, Normine Resources Ltd. conducted a 2-day program of geological mapping and sampling and geological reconnaissance and prospecting on adjoining ground.
