The Ormond 6 occurrence is located west of Matilda Inlet, on the eastern coast of Flores Island.
The area is underlain by metamorphosed, locally foliated volcanic rocks, volcanoclastics and minor bands of garnetized limestone and chert of the Paleozoic-Mesozoic Westcoast Complex occur near diorite of the Eocene Catface Intrusions. A 2 by 17 kilometre dike-like granodiorite stock of the Eocene Catface Intrusions cuts Upper Paleozoic to Lower Mesozoic mafic volcanic rocks of the West Coast Complex. The occurrence is poorly documented. The style of mineralization and location are uncertain.
Ministry of Mines Annual Report 1916, page 335, considers the Ormond 6 an extension of the Ormond 3, located 1 kilometre west, where lenses, disseminations, and fracture fillings of pyrite, pyrrhotite, and chalcopyrite occur in mafic volcanics, and in epidote-calcite-quartz breccia (see Ormond 3, 092E 012).
In 1962, Van-West Minerals completed a induced polarization survey on the area as the Contact and Ormond claims. In 1979 and 1981, Clear Mines completed programs of geological mapping, rock and soil sampling and airborne geophysical surveys on the area. In 1987 and 1988, Parallax Development completed programs of geochemical sampling, geological mapping, an induced polarization survey and twenty-eight diamond drill holes, totalling 2538.1 metres on the area as the Contact and Au claims.
