The Tim occurrence is located between Bennett - and Tutshi Lake, approximately 21.7 kilometres north-northwest of Fraser.
The Tim vein is a quartz-sulphide vein and occurs in Late Cretaceous equigranular granite. Mineralization consists of semi-massive arsenopyrite that is variably oxidized. Minor pyrite and chalcopyrite fill the arsenopyrite fractures and enargite and electrum form small inclusions in the arsenopyrite. Anhedral, fine-grained quartz commonly occurs interstitial to the sulphides. The vein continues along strike to the west, for a total length of 370 metres, until it pinches out near the granite contact with a package of sedimentary rocks.
Sample sheets indicate a mineralized zone of about 40 centimetres in width. Elsewhere it is described as a 10-metre-wide zone of stockworks with arsenopyrite veins throughout and large quartz blebs. Sample C287115 from the 10-metre-wide stockwork zone assayed 10.58 grams per tonne gold, 5 grams per tonne silver, 0.05 per cent copper and 23.5 per cent arsenic (Assessment Report 31079).
The Tim vein was discovered in 2008 by Troymet Exploration while conducting reconnaissance on their Golden Eagle property. The showing was discovered immediately west (and outside) of the Golden Eagle property boundary.
In 2014, spectral analysis of Landsat satellite images of the Chilkoot property of Xplorer Minerals Inc. were used to interpret lithological variations or rock alterations that are expressed as variations in color intensity values within color composite images (Assessment Report 35969). The Hydroxal image indicates areas with elevated clay alteration minerals. Two zones appear anomalous in the Paddy Pass claim block area. Anomaly A in the northeast corner of the claim block is a well-defined collection of pixels along a ridge on the north side of the interpreted Paddy Pass fault. Anomaly B is more diverse; however, it appears to be somewhat confined to the peak on the south-central border of the claim block. In the iron oxide image (FeO), Anomaly A is clearly shown as a strong red grouping of targets that correspond very well with the hydroxal response in the same area as Anomaly A and B. The site investigation of this target identified a large gossan zone on the ridge where the FeO response is strongest. The analysis shows the Tim showing occurs in an area of significantly elevated clay and iron oxide (Anomaly A).
