The L occurrence is located at an elevation of approximately 1250 metres on a generally south facing slope, north west of Fawnie Creek and approximately 3 kilometres north of the north east end of Laidman Lake.
The region in which the showing occurs is within the Intermontane Belt, underlain dominantly by Lower to Middle Jurassic volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Hazelton Group. These assemblages are overlain by the Upper Cretaceous to Lower Tertiary Ootsa Lake Group and Miocene plateau basalt. Intruding Lower Jurassic rocks of the Hazelton Group in the northeastern part of the map sheet is a belt of granodiorite, diorite, and quartz diorite plutons of the Lower Jurassic Topley intrusive suite. Felsic plutons of probable Cretaceous age intrude both Lower and Middle Jurassic Hazelton strata.
Although little is known about the L showing, copper and molybdenum mineralization is reported to occur in an area which, on Geological Survey of Canada Map 1131A, is underlain by Lower Jurassic rocks of the Hazelton Group. A short distance to the west is a granitic intrusion of probable Cretaceous age.
