The Kiwi occurrence is located on a ridge top about 8 kilometres west of Uslika Lake, approximately 53 kilometres northwest of the community of Germansen Landing.

Malachite was observed on fracture surfaces in a fragmental augite feldspar porphyry of the Upper Triassic Plughat Mountain Formation (Takla Group). Syenite and granodiorite of the Early Jurassic Hogem Plutonic Suite intrudes the Takla rocks near the occurrence. Trace pyrite is also reported. The mineralized outcrop is 2 by 2 metres in area. In 1991, a sample of this material assayed 0.18 per cent copper (Open File 1992-11, Map Number 4).

The showing was first reported by British Columbia Geological Survey field crew in 1991 (Fieldwork 1991).

A related work history of the area is discussed in the Cat (094C 069) prospect located 1.4 kilometres south-southwest. Specifically, some of the soil grid work conducted by British Petroleum in 1990 appears to be in the Kiwi area (Assessment Report 21558). Also, a 2005 soil grid by Lysander Minerals covers the Kiwi showing area (Assessment Report 28330). Further, one 2005 drillhole (05-16) was collared on the North zone to test a chargeability anomaly outlined during a 2005 induced polarization survey. This hole was about 400 metres west of the Kiwi showing but was reported to be barren. In 2007, Fugro Airborne Surveys carried out heliborne magnetic and electromagnetic surveying over the large Cat Mountain property of Lysander Minerals. The purpose of the survey was to assist in the search for copper-gold porphyry deposits along the eastern extremity of the Hogem batholith by using the magnetic and resistivity results to provide information on stratigraphy and structures.
