The main copper exposure within sheared Silver King intrusive in the area of 2005 exploration contains abundant malachite. The malachite occurs within local penetrative fractures as narrow veinlets, and makes up to 10% of the outcrop. Assay of a grab sample from the outcrop returned 4.24 % copper. Thin section analysis indicates that the rock 'contains 1% to 2% bomite.

Several outcrops of sheared volcanic contain malachite staining. Samples of this material returned values up to 1.3% copper. The shears, comprised of chloritic schisty volcanic rock, provide conduits for transport and precipitation of copper mineralization.
