Dec 09, 2015 (D Guidon) - The area is underlain by rocks that are part of the Western Abitibi subprovince, part of the Archean aged Superior Province. The gold occurrence is with an east- to northeast-trending package of volcanic rocks.

The assemblage is composed to felsic-intermediate to mafic metavolcanic rocks, which are bounded to the north by the Porcupine Assemblage.
