The Bach showing is approximately 1 kilometre southwest of KING (104B 338) on a south-facing ridge side above a tributary of Verrett River, approximately 10 kilometres north of Iskut River.

The Bach claims straddle a contact between a Mesozoic dioritic intrusive related to the Coast Plutonic Complex and Triassic volcanics and sediments of the Stuhini Group. The diorite occupies the southwestern portion of the claims and is well exposed on the steeper slopes. Gossanous patches accentuate the diorite-volcanic contact and the sequence intermediate to mafic volcanics as well as a thick bed of limestone occur to the northeast of the diorite.

The volcanics strike about 130 degrees, sub-parallel to the volcanic-diorite contact. They are comprised mainly of porphyritic basalt flows and agglomerate. They are overlain by a slightly recrystallized banded limestone and coarse conglomerate.

The diorite consists of a light grey, medium-grained rock com- prised mainly of feldspar and hornblende with minor biotite and quartz.

Pyrite is ubiquitous within all rocks, except the limestone, and occurs as fine-grained disseminations. Near the diorite-volcanic contact higher concentrations of pyrite are marked by brown-red gossan zones. Within these gossanous zones the pyrite occurs as disseminations and fracture fillings.

In 1980, a sample assayed 1.03 grams per tonne gold, 8.91 grams per tonne silver, 0.15 per cent copper and 0.01 per cent lead with 0.01 per cent zinc (Geology map, Assessment Report 9192). A rock sample taken in 1988 assayed 9.94 grams per tonne gold and 17.5 grams per tonne silver (Sample 21099, Assessment Report 18129)

In 1987 and 1988 Ticker Tape Resources (Assessment Report 16850 and 18129) funded extensive exploration work in the Bach target area. The Bach Target was initially identified by Du Pont in 1981 and consisted of a series of stream sediment samples which returned strongly anomalous gold values. Follow up soil sampling and prospecting in 1987 and 1988 by Ticker Tape Resources resulted in the identification of a broad area of anomalous gold values in soils upslope from the anomalous stream samples.

In 2009, Garibaldi Resources conducted prospecting and rock sampling on the King property, which included the Bach area. Though no new work was done there, compilation of historic exploration work completed in 1981, 1987 and 1988 was done for Bach Target area (Assessment Report 31374).

The 2011 program by Garibaldi and Acadia Resources Corp. consisted of the collection of 67 composite talus and soil samples from within the area of anomalous gold values. No significant gold or copper values resulted from the analysis; however, several samples did return strongly anomalous molybdenum values (Assessment Report 32926).
