Mineralization is a vein deposit with a tabular ore body. Ore control was faulting and shearing. Ore concentration was oxidation at near surface. Alteration was minor. An associated rock unit is the Government Canyon Granodiorite and the informally-named Walker Stock, Walker Granodiorite.
Area structures include veins sometimes parallel to regional foliation in Precambrian country rocks, which trends N10E to N45E.
