The MDB occurrence is located approximately 14.5 kilometres northwest of Kimberley, British Columbia in the Purcell Mountains.

The regional area has experienced significant exploration and development over the last century, notably the past producing Sullivan Mine (MINFILE 082FNE052) which is located 13 kilometres southwest of the MDB property.

The MDB occurrence is hosted in the Creston Formation of the mesoproterozoic Purcell Supergroup. Rocks comprise quartzites, siltstones, and thin bedded silty argillites. Limonite, carbonate, sericite, and chlorite alteration are widespread (Assessment Report 36942).

Copper mineralization has been reported as fracture filling and narrow veins of chalcopyrite, malachite, and bornite, usually associated with limonite, pyrite, carbonate, and manganese alteration (Assessment Report 36942).

In 2016, Kootenay Silver Inc. prospected the MDB property and collected 21 rock samples for assay. Samples CK16-44, a quartzite with bornite and malachite along fractures assayed 0.23 per cent copper and 0.107 gram per tonne gold. Rock sample CK16-50 contained a 30 to 50 centimetre bedding-parallel quartz vein, and assayed 0.29 per cent lead and 40.5 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 36942).
