The Copper occurrence is located approximately 7 kilometres northwest of Mount Patcha, centered between showings 1 and 2. Showings 3 and 4 are located approximately 1 kilometre to the southeast.

The showings are hosted in the Lower Jurassic Telkwa Formation (Hazelton Group) argillaceous tuffs, volcanic flows, argillites, and andesitic pyroclastics. Diorite dykes, possibly related to and contemporaneous with the Eocene Kastberg Intrusions, intrude the rocks (Property File - Mouritsen, S. A., 1969). Faulting in the area generally trends west to north-northwest and has resulted in fractures within the country rocks. A large west striking fault runs through the middle of the property and is informally named the "Main fault".

Mineralization at the showings consists of bornite and chalcopyrite with minor pyrite and galena. Mineralization occurs in heavily fractured and malachite stained Telkwa Formation rocks. The fractures and veins are associated with the "Main fault". A sample representing 2.44 metres from showing 2 assayed 1.2 per cent copper and 226.1 grams per tonne silver (Property File - Mouritsen, S. A., 1970).

Electrum's 2008 report indicated that MINFILE showings Magnum (094D 058) and Copper (094D 120) were likely to be shear-related copper showings that had been locally upgraded by supergene processes.

WORK HISTORY

In 1963/1964 work (at least in part) by Northern Exploration Limited and in 1969/1970 by Roosevelt Exploration Ltd, on the Magnum showing (094D 058) and the Copper showing (094D 120) consisted of sampling, mapping and drilling. Several showings were investigated, and at D prospect (094D 058) a detailed look at fault related mineralization was made. Pits were blasted and 12 drill holes in a rough grid pattern were placed across a mineralized area some 274.3 metres long and from 91.4 to 137.1 metres wide. Exploration on the Copper showing (094D 120) yielded 88 chip samples and 1 DDH hole near a mineralized 175 metres (horizontal) and within 30 metres of the fault zone returned 24.86 grams per tonne silver and 0.27 per cent copper (Property File - Mouritsen, S.A., 1970, page 8). The centre of the zone was tested with a shallow 18.3 metres drill hole it returned 21.36 grams per tonne and 0.561 per cent copper over the total length (Property File - Mouritsen, S.A., 1970, page 8).

In 2007, Electrum Resource Corporation held the PAT claim group of 3004 hectares in the vicinity of Mt Patcha, northwest of northern end of Bear Lake. The claims include four MINFILE showings; Magnum (094D 058), Pat (094D 071), Topo (094D 117), and Copper (094D 120), each contained within claims 555997, 531535, 555063 and 555062 respectively. One day was spent in the Magnum occurrence area where 10 rock and 10 soils samples were collected. One day was spent in the Topo occurrence area where 9 rock and 13 soil samples were collected. One day was spent in the Copper occurrence area where 4 rock samples, 1 soil sample and 3 stream sediment samples were collected. One day was spent in the Pat occurrence area where 19 rock, 2 soil ,1 talus fines and 1 stream sediment samples were collected.

Electrum's crew was unable to locate a specific showing that matches the MINFILE location and description. In the vicinity of 094D 120, both rock and stream sediment samples have consistently high background levels of silver, with a few elevated values of other metals.
