The Wiggins Creek (Hilltop and Azurite Pit) occurrences are located near the top of a small hill, approximately 1.3 kilometres northwest of Wiggins Lake.

The area is underlain by the Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic Nicola Group, consisting of pyritic siltstone, sandstone and conglomerate. Locally, these have been intruded by sill-like bodies of latite porphyry and overlaid by basaltic volcanic rocks of the Miocene to Pleistocene Chilcotin Group.

Locally, two areas of mineralization have been identified and are referred to as the Hilltop zone and the Azurite Pit zone, located 350 metres to the south. Both mineralized zones are hosted by sill-like bodies of epidote-chlorite-altered latite porphyry that have been cut by northwest striking quartz-feldspar dikes. Mineralization consists of minor pyrite and fine-grained disseminated chalcopyrite with associated malachite in quartz-calcite veins.

In 2005, four rock samples (05152 through 05154) from the Hilltop zone assayed from 0.797 to 2.331 per cent copper, while two rock samples (05158 and 05161) from the Azurite Pit zone assayed 2.272 and 2.740 per cent copper, respectively (Assessment Report 27895). In 2008, diamond drilling of the Azurite Pit zone yielded up to 0.575 per cent copper over 2 metres from drill hole 09-4 (Assessment Report 31168).

In 1969 and 1970, Grandeur Resources completed programs of prospecting, geological mapping, soil sampling and a ground magnetic survey on the area as the Wiggins Creek claims. In 1981 and 1982, Gibraltar Mines completed an induced polarization survey and six diamond drill holes, totalling 705 metres, on the area. During 2005 through 2011, Eagle Peak Resources completed programs of prospecting, geochemical sampling, 2390.5 line-kilometres of airborne geophysical surveys, a ground magnetic and induced polarization survey and eight diamond drill holes, totalling, 1091 metres, on the area as the Veith, Miocene and Peak properties.
