The AAA 6 occurrence is located in the southeastern headwaters of the Strandby River, approximately 5.0 kilometres north-northwest of the community of Holberg.
The area is underlain by Upper Triassic Karmutsen Formation (Vancouver Group) volcanics that have undergone regional zeolite facies metamorphism. The volcanics trend northwest and consist mainly of massive, green to purple, amygdaloidal basalt.
Locally, bornite and malachite are disseminated within narrow quartz-filled fractures in massive green to purple, amygdaloidal basalt.
