The Lakeview occurrence is located at the head of Cascade Creek at 2100 metres elevation above sea level in the Slocan Mining Division.

Regionally, the area lies within the Selkirk Mountains of southeastern British Columbia. The occurrence is within the Kootenay Arc, a curving belt of highly deformed metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks which includes the Upper Proterozoic Horsethief Creek Group, the Upper Proterozoic to Lower Cambrian Hamill Group, the Lower Cambrian Badshot Formation, and the Paleozoic Lardeau and Milford groups. The volcano-sedimentary sequence is intruded by numerous Paleozoic to Mesozoic granitoid plutons and has been metamorphosed to at least middle greenschist facies before the emplacement of the mineralization.

The area is underlain by andesite, sandstone, siltstone and phyllite of the lower portion of the Broadview Formation of the Lardeau Group. The rocks have been folded in a series of northwest- trending folds that were subsequently thrusted in a northeasterly direction along local faults (Geological Survey of Canada Bulletin 193).

At the Lakeview showing two trenches expose sparsely mineralized metasandstone between two quartz veins. The quartz veins are mineralized with disseminated and massive galena, pyrite and sphalerite. Some of the mineralization resembles the massive mineralization at the White Eagle (082KSW126). The No. 1 vein strikes 128 degrees and dips steeply southwest. It is 20 centimetres wide in the trenches. A composite chip sample of about 10 blocks of vein material taken from the soil at the western end of the trench assayed 144 grams per tonne gold, 158 grams per tonne silver, 6.04 per cent lead and 3.47 per cent zinc (Assessment Report 18136). The No. 2 vein is exposed in a trench 4.6 metres above the No. 1 vein. This vein strikes 281 degrees and dips 81 degrees north. Mineralization in the sandstone between the veins comprises thin sheets of pyrite and minor galena with sphalerite along cleavage planes.

During 1987 and 1988 Ambergate Explorations conducted an exploration program which consisted of 1:10000 scale mapping, a soil survey, and trenching on their Amber 1-4 claims in which the Lakeview showing is located. A follow-up to the 87-88 exploration program was done in 1994 by Lumby Resources Corporation, an optionee of Kenrich Mining Corporation, formerly Ambergate Explorations. This program extended the soil survey in the Juno, West Ridge (082KSW197), and White Eagle (082KSW126) showing areas (Assessment Report 23669).
