The BIG HILL, a fracture controlled sulphide showing, is located on the east bank of Big Hill Creek about 150 metres north of Horseshoe Lake.
The BIG HILL occurs in a narrow fault zone which forms the contact between greenstone of the Devonian-Triassic Harper Ranch Group and a granitic intrusive. The Harper Ranch Group is hosted by diorite and granodiorite of an unnamed Middle Jurassic Intrusion.
The fault zone, in which the BIG HILL showing is found, strikes north and dips about 60 degrees to the west. The zone is narrow, about 10 centimetres in places. It weathers rusty (limonite?), suggesting that pyrite is present. Argentite has been found coating fractures within the fracture zone. Additional information on this showing is lacking.
In 1968-69, International Mine Services Ltd. carried out geochemical and geological surveys over the PAY DAY (082ENE037) prospect 1.5 kilometres to the southeast. The BIG HILL was covered by the PEAK 152 claim at this time but no work was recorded.
In 1978, Amore Minerals Incorporated contracted Glen E. White Geophysical Consulting Services Ltd. to carry out a soil sampling program on the GEO 2 (082ENE038) claim which covered the BIG HILL showing. No anomalies were found near the showing.
