The Saddle occurrence is located 3.75 kilometres due east of the summit of Alberts Hump, south of Abesti Creek and 800 metres due south of the AL (Bonanza) occurrence (094E 079), approximately 300 kilometres north of Smithers. It lies within the Omineca-Cassiar mountains in the west-central portion of the Toodoggone Gold Camp.

The Saddle prospect is situated within a Mesozoic volcanic arc assemblage which lies along the eastern margin of the Intermontane Belt, a northwest-trending belt of Paleozoic to Tertiary sediments, volcanics and intrusions bounded to the east by the Omineca Belt and to the west and southwest by the Sustut and Bowser basins. Permian Asitka Group crystalline limestones are the oldest rocks exposed in the region. They are commonly in thrust contact with Upper Triassic Takla Group andesite flows and pyroclastic rocks. These Takla rocks have been intruded by plutons and other bodies of the mainly granodiorite to quartz monzonite Early Jurassic Black Lake Suite and are in turn unconformably overlain by or faulted against Lower Jurassic calcalkaline volcanics of the Toodoggone Formation (Hazelton Group).

The dominant structures in the area are steeply dipping faults which define a prominent regional northwest structural fabric trending 140 to 170 degrees. In turn, high angle, northeast-striking faults (approximately 060 degrees) appear to truncate and displace northwest-striking faults. Collectively these faults form a boundary for variably rotated and tilted blocks underlain by monoclinal strata.

The Adoogacho and Metsantan members of the Toodoggone Formation underlie the AL property. The Adoogacho Member consists of trachydacite ash-flow tuff with lenses of lapilli tuff, rare marlstone, and conglomerate near the base. The Metsantan Member is composed mainly of trachyandesite (latite) flows with lenses of lapilli tuff, and lahar; minor volcanic sandstone and conglomerate (Bulletin 86). The Metsantan Member, in part, directly overlies the basal Adoogacho Member and is also in fault contact with it.

The Saddle prospect consists of three northeast trending, parallel bands of silicification, highly anomalous in silver. For a more detailed account of the local geology and alteration refer to the Bonanza developed prospect (094E 079). Bands consist of a core of silicification with or without sulphides and locally lesser argillic alteration. These silica cores are typically flanked or enveloped by zones of weak argillic, propylitic and hematitic alteration or argillic alteration only (Assessment Report 15735). The southernmost band (Saddle showing), the largest, has a lensoid shape and is roughly 60 metres long by 30 metres wide.

The best assay results were from Trench 12, across the southernmost band. Of nine samples taken across this trench, seven samples yielded 7.0 grams per tonne silver or greater, and four samples yielded greater than 20.0 grams per tonne. The highest silver assay value came from sample 86BK082 and was 174.0 grams per tonne. Sample 86BK094 analyzed 31.5 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 15735).

In 2007, Christopher James Gold Corp. conducted a helicopter-borne magnetic gradiometer survey consisting of 2229 line-kilometres over all historic gold deposits and MINFILE occurrences on the property, including the Saddle area. Maps completed include coloured Total Magnetic Intensity, Measured 3-D Analytic Signal, Measured Vertical Magnetic Gradient, and colour-shaded Tilt Derivative of the Total Magnetic Intensity.

See Bonanza (094E 079) for further geological and work history details of the Ranch (Al) property of which the Saddle is part of.
