The Cam-Gloria occurrence is located at an elevation of approximately 1100 metres on an east-facing slope overlooking Adams Lake, approximately 6.8 kilometres north of the mouth of Spapilem Creek.

Regionally, the area is located near the contact between the mid-Cretaceous Baldy Batholith, the upper Proterozoic to lower Cambrian Graffunder Lakes unit and a late Devonian orthogneiss unit, all of the Eagle Bay Assemblage. The Eagle Bay Assemblage comprises a series of low-grade metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks, including micaceous quartzite, grit, phyllite and quartz mica schist, accompanied by minor amounts of chlorite schist, limestone, calcareous phyllite, calc-silicate schist and amphibolite.

Locally, monzonite of the Baldy Batholith, located near its contact with gneissic metasediments of the Eagle Bay Assemblage, hosts a 4.0- to 40.0-metre wide shear zone with quartz veins, ranging from 1- to 10-millimetre thick stockwork veinlets to vein ‘blowouts’ with widths of up to 14.0 metres. The veins contain 1 to 15 per cent coarse grained sulphides, mainly pyrite and pyrrhotite, with traces of galena, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, arsenopyrite and hematite. Gold values are variable but appear to be associated with galena, fine-grained bluish-grey sulphides and local discordant gouge or brecciated zones. Various vein styles are reported and include laminated veins ± fluorite, milky mesothermal veins, complex vein breccias, laminated chalcedonic veinlets and banded sulphide-rich veins.

The main vein averages 5.2 metres in width at surface and occupies a 35- to 40-metre wide, 700-metre long zone of variable sericite-clay-biotite-chlorite-epidote alteration and shearing in quartz monzodiorite of the Honeymoon stock. The alteration zone strikes northeast at 025 to 045 degrees, dips northwest from 45 to 70 degrees and appears to pinch and swell along strike.

A parallel northeast-trending structure, located approximately 100 to 125 metres to the northwest of the main shear zone, contains alteration and quartz veins with anomalous gold values.

Grab samples taken by BC geologists assayed up to 3.754 grams per tonne gold and 61.4 grams per tonne silver, whereas samples collected by C. Berube yielded up to 27.4 grams per tonne gold (Exploration in BC 1997, page 40). The vein also contains anomalous values of bismuth (to 120 parts per million), copper (to 794 parts per million), lead (to 534 parts per million), molybdenum (to 33 parts per million), tellurium (to 4.1 parts per million) and tungsten (to 86 parts per million), and weakly anomalous arsenic (to 35 parts per million; Mike Cathro, personal communication, 1998).

In 1998, sampling of trench no. 1 on the main vein is reported to have yielded 9.36 grams per tonne gold over 2.0 metres (Assessment Report 26215).

In 1999, grab samples of sulphide-rich vein material are reported to have yielded up to 32.76 grams per tonne gold, whereas trenching yielded values of up to 17.62 grams per tonne gold, 66.2 grams per tonne silver and 0.137 per cent lead over 1.0 metre in trench 99-01 and 1.12 gram per tonne gold, 158.0 grams per tonne silver and 0.169 per cent lead over 2.0 metres in trench 99-08 (Assessment Report 26215). Also at this time, float samples from the parallel structure to the northwest yielded values of up to 0.725 gram per tonne gold, whereas samples from a biotite-muscovite schist with quartz stockworks, taken near its contact with a quartz monzodiorite intrusive to the north, yielded values of up to 0.200 gram per tonne gold (Assessment Report 26215).

Diamond drilling of the main vein, also performed in 1999, yielded intercepts including 9.57 grams per tonne gold, 128.4 grams per tonne silver and 0.190 per cent lead over 1.0 metre in hole CG-99-01, 1.44 grams per tonne gold and 4.4 grams per tonne silver over 1.0 metre in hole CG-99-02 and 0.305 gram per tonne gold over 5.9 metres in hole CG-99-03 (Assessment Report 26215).

In 2007, a chip sample (322629) from the historical trench no. 1 assayed 1.93 grams per tonne gold, 109.0 grams per tonne silver, 0.237 per cent lead and greater than 1.0 per cent zinc over 0.30 metre (Assessment Report 30869).

In 2018, a select grab sample (CG18S3) from the historical trench no. 1 assayed 0.936 gram per tonne gold, whereas a 1-metre vertical channel sample from the historical trench no. 2 yielded 0.357 gram per tonne gold and 48.6 grams per tonne silver (Assessment Report 37982).

Work History

In 1998, follow up work, by Camille Berube, on anomalous samples from the 1997 Geological Survey Branch's till geochemistry survey release, led to the Cam-Gloria discovery.

In 1999, Teck Corporation completed a program of prospecting, geological mapping, a ground electromagnetic survey, trenching and seven diamond drill holes, totalling 836 metres.

During 2007 through 2009, D.J. Piggin and Acrex Ventures Ltd. completed programs of geochemical (rock, silt and soil) sampling, geological mapping and minor trenching on the area as the Honeymoon Creek property.

During 2010 through 2013, Astral Mining Corp. completed programs of prospecting, geochemical (rock, silt and soil) sampling, minor trenching and 2425.4 line-kilometres of airborne magnetic and electromagnetic surveys on the area as the Honeymoon property.

In 2014, SolidusGold Inc. completed a program of prospecting and geochemical (rock, soil and heavy mineral) sampling on the Honeymoon property. In 2016, an airborne magnetic survey was completed.

In 2018, D.J. Piggin prospected and sampled the area as the Camgloria claim. Further programs of geological mapping and photo interpretation were completed in 2019 and 2020.
