The Hilltop showing is 1.8 kilometres east-southeast of the summit of Mount Rabbitt and 4.5 kilometres northwest of Tulameen. The Red Bird adit (092HNE020) is 650 metres east-northeast of here.

A horizon of massive sulphides, 0.2 to 0.6 metre thick, is hosted in strongly sheared and fractured andesite of the Upper Triassic Nicola Group. Trenching in the immediate vicinity of the deposit indicates a very limited strike length.

The horizon is comprised of pyrite and lesser chalcopyrite. A grab sample of massive sulphide mineralization assayed 2.66 per cent copper, 0.10 per cent lead, 0.06 per cent zinc, 12.3 grams per tonne silver and 0.03 gram per tonne gold (Assessment Report 13396, assay certificate, sample 6576). A chip sample across the sulphide horizon assayed 2.13 per cent copper, 0.03 per cent lead, 0.32 per cent zinc, 25.0 grams per tonne silver and 0.07 gram per tonne gold over 1 metre (Assessment Report 13396, assay certificate, sample 6577).

Work History

In 2008, Discovery Ventures Inc. completed a 425 line-kilometre airborne magnetometer and electromagnetic (VLF-EM) survey on the area as the Rabbitt Mine property.
