A Cu prospect located in sec. 3, T8S, R18E, at or near the old Copper Creek townsite/post office, on private land.

Mineralization is a breccia deposit hosted in the Glory Hole volcanics. The breccia is made up of altered Glory Hole Volcanics (Tertiary-Cretaceous). Flat fragments give a nearly horizontal layering to the breccia. Layering is nearly vertically inclined near contacts. The breccias are weakly stained by Cu minerlas.
