The Tac occurrence is located off the south bank of Woods Creek, 5.5 kilometres southeast of Glossy Mountain

The area lies near the northern edge of the Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic Guichon Creek Batholith and is underlain by granodiorite and diorite.

Locally, trace amounts of disseminated molybdenite and chalcopyrite and malachite occur in biotite granodiorite of the Guichon variety (Highland Valley phase). The granodiorite is slightly fractured and minor feldspar alteration was noted.

Work History

Manor Mines Ltd. conducted a geological survey in 1966; during 1968 they established a small grid and put down three short diamond drill holes. In 1970, Manor Mines Ltd. conducted geological mapping and completed a magnetometer and soil geochemical survey.

In 2001, Getty Copper Corp. completed a 318-sample, 18 line-kilometre soil sampling program alongside 23 rock samples and 1:10 000–scale geological mapping over the Highland Valley property.

In 2004, Getty Copper Inc. completed a drilling and drill geochemical sampling program on the Getty Copper property.

In 2017, Peter E. Walcott & Associates collected a total of 226 soil samples in the Glossie (MINFILE 092INW011) area, which filled in and extended copper-in-soil anomalies identified during historical exploration work.

In 2019, a program of direct current resistivity and a passive seismic survey was completed by Peter E. Walcott & Associates Limited throughout multiple locations on the Getty property. The resistivity survey totalled 2.7 line-kilometres and identified a north-trending structure that extends south towards the Glossie showing (MINFILE 092INW011).

In 2020, Peter E. Walcott & Associates Limited completed a passive seismic survey over the Getty property.
