The D1 occurrence is located about 2 kilometres to the northeast of Ealue Lake, approximately 14 kilometres east-southeast of the village of Iskut. The area is underlain mainly by andesitic rock of the Upper Triassic Stuhini Group.

A sample of chlorite-calcite altered andesitic breccia with malachite stains assayed 0.4 gram per tonne gold and 0.68 per cent copper (Open File 1997-3, Table 1 - Sample D1 (Field No. TFR94-040)). About 1 kilometre to the northeast, a sample from a 10-metre-wide gossan zone containing 5 to 10 per cent pyrite assayed 0.29 per cent copper, 0.15 gram per tonne gold and 11.8 grams per tonne silver (Open File 1997-3, Table 1 - Sample D3 (Field No. TFR94-036)). These samples were taken in 1994 during a regional mapping program by the British Columbia Geological Survey.
