The O'Henry copper showing outcrops on the northeast bank of Henning (Holm) Creek, 2.9 kilometres northwest of the creek's confluence with Lawless Creek and 13 kilometres northwest of the town of Tulameen.

The occurrence consists of one or more quartz veins at least 0.9 metre wide hosted in andesite of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group. Much of the vein consists of white, barren quartz. Locally, the quartz is mineralized with pyrite, chalcopyrite and a few specks of galena and sphalerite.

In 2014, a rock sample (83550) of oxidized silica exhalative with bands or beds of tuff and fine-grained pyrite-pyrrhotite mineralization from Lawless Ridge, northeast of the O’Henry occurrence, yielded 0.138 gram per tonne gold (Assessment Report 35095).

In 2016, a float sample (Q980344) of semi-gossanous Nicola Group tuff with disseminated pyrite, located on the east side of Lawless Ridge and west of Lawless Creek, approximately 1.3 kilometres north-northeast of the O’Henry occurrence, assayed 0.764 gram per tonne gold (Assessment Report 36939).

Work History

By 1960, four opencuts were reported on the O’Henry property. In 1969, a program of biogeochemical and a ground magnetic survey was completed on the area immediately north and east of the occurrence as the Co claims.

In 1983, Weymark Engineering Ltd. completed a program of trenching and a single diamond drill hole, totalling 105.6 metres, on the area as the GFC claims.

During 2014 through 2018, Tech-X Resources Ltd. completed programs of geological mapping, geochemical (rock, silt and soil) sampling, 29.5 line-kilometres of induced polarization surveys and a 548.9 line-kilometre airborne magnetic survey and on the area as the Thinne and LC claims of the Lawless Creek property.
